Event Report
Comments and anecdotes about the event:
The weather turned out better than expected with intermittent, mostly high clouds and haze, mostly to the south. At times it was almost completely clear. We showed our guests what we could, when we could. Club members making it out to help were, Dmitri, Adrian, Fred (who was running his telescope), Jack (running the McMath), and Charlie Nielsen (OHC and greeter), who also got some images with his Seestar S50. We had 15 guests.
