The demolition work at the college is scheduled to commence on March the 5th. Hopefully, we will be able to make the arrangements and have the structure moved to Greenbelt shortly there after. Peoples all over the world have created their own pictures in the night sky, and the stories to go with them. Staff astronomer Sean O'Brien takes a look at a number of constellations and their interpretation according to African skylore. Bring your telescope to the Observatory and our Open House volunteer staff can assist you in everything from setting up your telescope, to finding interesting things to look at and do with a small telescope.
Admission is free, and feel free to drop in at any point in the evening.

The Board then discussed the upcoming elections and how to made sure that the elections run smoothly.
