Tomorrow many faac members will be at the lake Erie metro park nature center

Many Ford Amateur Astronomy Club members will be at the Ice Daze event.

It's at lake erie metro park south of Detroit. The hours of e event is from 10am until 10pm. Visitors will still have to pay standard metro park sticker fees, but once your in the park the event is free.

If the sky is clear we will have telescopes there for public viewing. If it's cloudy we will still have some telescopes and astronomy items on display.

Drop by some time if you want to chat with one of our astronomers. For viewing you will want to be dressed warm.

The telescopes will be on display inside the nature center if we aren't able to view due to weather conditions.

In HJRO news I picked up a broom with a long handle to clean off the dome. A grant request is being worked on for more equipment that might enhance the observatory capacity. We will see how that goes.
