Outreach event for Charlie Elliott, September 24, 25

15 September, 2008 (14:57) | ALERTS, Astronomy, Observing | By: tramakers

I received an email with the following from Julie Duncan, the Residential Program Director at Charlie Elliott:

“We are hosting a very small workshop for teachers to help us plan our curriculum for the new CEWC Residential Program.  They will be with us Sept. 24-25.  I wondered if it might be possible to share your astronomical enthusiasm with them on Wednesday night – weather permitting.  We wouldn’t require much, just a chance to get outside, learn, and enjoy.  

I’m thinking about asking Stephen if he could come by on Thursday (same location – Discovery Room) for about an hour. ”

I would encourage everyone if you have the time to come out Wednesday evening or Thursday noon and let these teachers see what amateur astronomy is about!!!  This is a perfect opportunity to reach out.

Please let me know if you can make it Wednesday evening and show the night sky and/or Thursday for a Solar hour.
