Hello everyone!? Is anyone missing summer yet?

?

FIRST:?

Thank you everyone who attended in the past for your support, and for getting vaccinated, we had 100% vaccinated attendees at both parties.? ?As always, please be safe.

?

FOOD:

I have spoken to Andy, of the Busy Bee food provider, and he has stated he will be available, for both parties.? He is checking all details and hopes to commit by January 14.

?

ARRANGEMENTS:

I also requested an appointment with the park supervisor on Friday Jan 21 to spell out any details in order to keep everybody on the same page this year.

?

LOCATION:

I have also started to reserve the pavilions, either of which may be used this year, neither of which is too distant for our purposes.? The ballfield pavilion may not be available for the Saturdays involved, but the Hawk Point pavilion isn’t that far a walk to meet our needs for Saturday.? I will be confirming exact arrangements as we get closer to the events.

?

I am guessing the max capacity of the ballfield, without camping next to the trees, is somewhere around 70 campsites, we won’t know until we see what that looks like.? The large camper/RV lot is available for the heavier units, and I am working with the staff to make the adjacent bathroom lighting to be much more friendly that last year.? In the meantime, I would encourage early registration as soon as available, considering people are in the mood to fill up the cruise ships, and this is a much safer event to attend.?

?

WEBSITE:

I am in the process of updating the website, with pricing and more, I am trying to keep this thing affordable.? I am also looking into offering T-shirts again, and will keep you updated (seems the supply isn’t consistent, and specific color/sizes might need to be flexible going forward).

?

If you know of an astro event calendar or website/publication to post info, please forward a link to me at my address below.? The days of sending out snail mail are long gone.? Be sure to join the email list at io.groups for updates, the link is below, and on the party website.? PLEASE allow special notice permission at the very least.? I try not to pollute your inbox.? I’ll try to have the Meta/Facebook page updated, as well as any other social media we might find helpful.? As always, sharing this info with your friends and other hobbyists is greatly appreciated.

?

I look forward to seeing everyone again this year. ?Dates are on the website, and we are as close to new moon I can get and still not be on a summer holiday weekend, which is not allowed.

Stay tuned!?

Phil
