This will be my second presentation of 2025, and April will mark Barry's second presentation as well. Please take stock of your area of expertise or passion in the astronomy realm and consider taking the stage as a feature presenter at one of our upcoming meetings. We're a small group that counts significantly on member-driven presentations for our monthly meetings, and whether you think it or not, it's very likely that the group would be interested in what you have to say. Too see what months are available for the rest of the year, use the link below to go to the club's google doc page where we manage the presentation schedule:</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1k86OWHOybN1N16lQK7AJAsAD4I9zBS6HfhTf-koTXSQ/edit?gid=0#gid=0" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" class="enhancr_card_1161032572">SSAS Stuff</a><br></div><div><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">PS - we haven't discussed yet what we'll be doing in July. The first Wednesday is on the 2nd, and for the past three years we've shifted the date to the weekend and had a summer barbecue. Of course the conflict is always with the day of the 4th, which is that Friday. So, do we just have a meeting on the 2nd and forego the cookout this year, or do we try to hold the cookout on Saturday the 5th, or, do we do something really outside the box and hold our event on the Saturday the 28th of <i>June? </i>That final option opens up the vacation week for family/friend activities that are always a part of that time of year. Please think on this and we can discuss it in person at the meeting.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Finally, if the weather is amenable (meaning clear, not too cold and not too windy) tomorrow night, is there any interest in gathering at Centennial Field for an observing session. Reply privately or publicly, whichever you're comfortable with. If the interest is there, we'll convene at the eyepieces.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Sincerely,</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Mike M.</div><div><br></div></div></body></html>
