Event

Event happens rain or shine – there is a classroom for talks and/or presentations.

Last year this event had about 60 people.  This is a low-stress event and does not take more than a person or two to host. Since it's a meteor watch, no telescope(s) required. Steve Sands did this event last year by himslelf, though a couple of astronomers would be nice.Park is located near the confluence of the Missouri & Mississippi rivers at 435 Confluence Tower Drive Hartford, IL 62048. web site:
