OCA Teenagers SIG

Posted On May 19, 2016

I would like to announce the start of a special group for teenagers in OCA. Briefly, the group is set up so that teenagers have activities and interaction that is specifically targeted to them. We are going to organize it around activities and keep in communications via email and an email reflector like a yahoo group.

Some of the activities we are working on for this year are the following:

We have been offered a free night on the Mt. Wilson 60" telescope; date yet to be set.
We have been invited to participate in a meteor count during the
Perseid meteor shower in August. We will hold it at the Anza site.
We are working on access to a remotely controlled telescope in Australia and have it available to group members.
More are being planned.

If you know someone who would like to be in the group, please send me their name, age, and an appropriate email address. Doug Millar, group coordinator drzarkof56@yahoo.com
