Update for the events this weekend from your club president.

The Yadkin County Star Party scheduled for tonight is an unqualified GO!
The weather looks great for the evening, a bit cool, perhaps, but clear.
The clouds should hold off until later.

A map is attached. 421 west to the Unifi exit.
We will be in the last baseball field (the access road at the end of the park
is slightly different than the map, as it is being changed to a loop, but it is
the same field shown on the map). We can drive out onto the outfield
of the baseball field to unload.

Unfortunately, the weather looks really bad for the Saturday night observation
at SciWorks (so make sure you come tonight to the Yadkin Star Party).
So the observation part of the SciWorks event is cancelled.

As I mentioned yesterday, we could still use some help at SciWorks.
There is the 2:30 “Make a Pocket Solar System” program that we need help with.
Bruce will present his Pluto, Dwarf Planet, New Horizons program at 7:00,
followed at around 8:00 with a planetarium sky tour. Bruce has suggested that
we could use a few telescopes setup inside to support these programs.

We can discuss this tonight at the Yadkin Star Party.

Hope to see you there.

David Morgan
FAS President
