Re: 2012 - April Skies over Mojave National Preserve?
Team OtAstro - what do you think of May 19 (an awesome new moon weekend) for a Mojave getaway?? or The group site is available on April 13, 14 (a nice third quarter moon) , and 27 (that date is out because its out sidewalk astro weekend). If any of you belong to the Mojave National Preserve Conservancy, David included us in the annual roundup letter to members. We were mentioned in the first paragraph! It was very nice. I have the letter someplace..... PS David we are the "Old Town Sidewalk Astronomers" from the San Gabriel Mountain Foothills ;-) Or On 2/1/2012 11:39 AM, David Lamfrom wrote:
How about may 19 or around there. Sierra club is meeting there, and we would have a built in audience.

May 19th should have better weather than the April dates? Also Elizabeth will be on an East coast University tour that week in April so we'd prefer the May date for family reasons :) Gary

David, let's lock in May 19. Mojo and I and Gary have spoken. :-) We will be able to camp at Black Canyon, right?? Jane All - here's the sentence in David's Conservancy letter I mentioned. "2011 has been both a successful year, and one of learning and growth for the Conservancy. We have continued our tradition of spring and fall night-sky gazing events. With the support of the Preserve staff and the leadership of the Pasadena Olde Towne Astronomers, over 130 individuals were introduced to the Preserve's pristine night skies and to the community of those who treasure it." :-) Jane Houston Jones Senior Outreach Specialist, Cassini Program Phone 818-393-6435 What's Up For February?
