NO Astronomical Observing at Fishcreek - Friday 6/15/2007
Regardless of weather, we will NOT be meeting behind Fishcreek Elementary School
the next two Fridays due to prior commitments by all the telescope
owner/operators you've come to know. Most of us are heavily involved with the
ACA (Astronomy Club of
Akron, Inc) and have two events to which we're committed - Camp CHOPS
(Children's Hospital Oncology Patients & Staff) and Camp WUNDERLUNG (Children's
Hospital patients with severe breathing disorders). These events at
Camp
Christopher are scheduled months ahead and we look forward to showing the
campers the wonders of the universe. However, if you're looking forward to
doing some astronomical observing this weekend, let me heartily encourage you to
come to the observatory owned and operated by the
ACA. It's
located in the Portage Lakes State Park at 5031 Manchester Rd, Akron, OH 44319.
We will be restarting the Stow observing sessions on Friday June 22, weather
permitting, of course.
