Carol writes: "Thursday's star night at Lakeview Elementary was our biggest school event yet. About 140 students and parents came out at 6:30 to the school field at 2 degrees above zero. Six telescopes were on Saturn, the Orion Nebula, the Pleiades and the thin crescent Moon low in the west." "Inside, Rick ran the slide show on the gym wall and Nate brought a mirror blank so the kids could see how a telescope mirror starts out. Thank you to all the volunteers. The school has asked us back in May." |
