All OAS members are encouraged to consider joining the usual bunch of renegades at these memorable high altitude events. Keep you eye on The Star Diagonal for next year's scheduled adventures. The next planned public star party at Antelope Island Star Park is set for Saturday September 11. Protocol is pretty much as before. Members are admitted to the island free.
Equipment set up is before dusk and if the skies are clear the seeing is always quite good.
This will be a dark sky event, being just two days past New Moon. The usual slide show tour of the universe is planned. After this month, only one more Antelope Island star party is scheduled, that being on October 9, 1999. Many thanks are extended to the Nominating Committee for their work in reaching out to OAS members and soliciting their help as next year's officers. Committee members were Cliff Peterson, Steve Richer and Wayne Sumner.
