Since it is not practical to guarantee that an official SJAA representative will be present at Coe, Fremont Peak, etc., we will only list dates that are suitable for deep-sky observing, that is to say, when the Moon will be out of the way. It has proved impossible to cover deep-sky sites, especially when the weather prospects are poor. This announcement is being prepared in early November, so we have no idea what will be the circumstances two months hence. Once publicly announced, there is no way to cancel an event.
Houge Park public events will be covered even in case of bad weather -- at least one member will be there to greet the people and give them the date of the next event.
-- Clear Skies!
