Event Report

Comments and anecdotes about the event:
Jim Sikes presented an excellent program, “The Elusive Red Dwarfs.” Rocky Togni talked about one of his favorites in this season’s Sky, the winter hexagon and the binoculars objects that can be found within this asterism. Allen Lee brought a remarkable 3d printed sundial, more correctly called a helio chromatic sundial. Five boxes of Night Sky Network outreach materials were found recently in our club “Bat Cave”. When we get the chance to go through them, we’re hoping to find contents and ideas to use in events and activities.
