Just a reminder, CEWC Summer Camp is less than 2 weeks away. This year we have been asked to give classroom presentations, and follow up with observing at the field on two days: Wednesday July 16, and July 23.

Classroom presentation is scheduled in the Visitors Center, from 6:45 until 8:15 pm, then on to the
field for some spectacular views of the heavens from 8:45 until 10:00ish.

Let me know if anyone can assist either in the classroom setting, or with telescopes on the field. Jon will do his powerpoint presentation on the solar system, and we will show the Phoenix movie/presentation shown at the last meeting. Clevis may make his Cassini movie available in case the weather does not cooperate, and we need to spend more time inside.

As the campers won’t be able to stay out too late, the more time we can give them at the eyepiece, the better. The kids were fantastic last year, as I’m sure they’ll be again this year. So drag out those scopes and join the fun.

Stephen Ramsden cannot make it those nights, however Stephen will be joining the groups on both days at 11:30am for a 30 to 45 minute view of the Sun. Thanks so much StePHen!!!

Send me an email if you can particiate at my bellsouth email address or to director @ (at) ceastronomy.org, and if you will be bringing your scope. Let’s show CEWC that we do appreciate it very much that the chapter can use their facilities and the field.

Thanks and Clear Skies,
Theo
