Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
Our Vice President, Bradley Carlson brought the club's 20 inch Dob. A collimation was completed on the Dob and though there were some minor mechanical problems with the scope it worked well. It was decided to have more camping astronomy trips in the future.
