Breezy Point needs some improvements. In the discussion, it came up that we need moisture proof cabinets in the observatory to house the clubs CCD camera, a TV monitor and other electronics. The warming building still needs to be wired and insulated. The former Nelson M. Richardson Observatory building needs a wider door put in to provide security for the clubs riding mower. This involves some mortar work, a doorframe and a new door.
Painting still needs to be done on the roof rails.
Roger thinks we need to install piers to replace member s tripods. As you can read in the previous paragraph, there are lots of little jobs still to be done or are on-going. Let Chuck or Roger know if and when you can help out at the observatory. Bill has a system figured for two boat winches to operate the roof, and will get underway as soon as materials can be acquired. Bill Evans made the suggestion that members could buy living Christmas trees and plant them along the Southeast perimeter to cut light pollution from that direction.
