-NEW- May Meeting - The program was "The Russian Meteor" by Phil Hoyle.

-UPDATED- Meeting Programming - The latest meeting program schedule is as follows

May- TBD

The Club would like some program suggestions. He'd love even more for some volunteers to give programs. It is perfectly acceptable, by the way to string several short programs together to get the equivalent of a longer one. If you have an idea contact John via email or at a meeting.

Current stories and/or club news
-UPDATED- Announcements .

The Wilderness Center has asked us for volunteers to man the observatory for the Romantic Moonlight Serenade on Saturday June 29, 2013

Jim Quinn will be giving a lecture on Ohio’s Certified Naturalists in the Astronomy Education Building at 7pm Thursday May 9, and an invitation to attend was given to all club members.

The club has another observing site for members only on privately owned property. The sky is as dark as at The Wilderness Center but it has excellent views of the horizon. Contact John or Tom for the address and details.

Election of officers were held at the March meeting. The new officers are:

President - Bill Castro

Vice President - Phil Hoyle

Treasurer - John Waechter

Secrretary - Ron Wallick

Our new Facebook page is http://www.facebook.com/pages/Wilderness-Center-Astronomy-Club/240164346076870.

Contact Bill if you are interested in training for the AEB entry and exit procedures and equipment in the observatory.
