On Saturday afternoon, August 19, 2017 there will be a unique opportunity for amateur astronomy clubs represented by ASTROCON attendees to gather together and network with each other. This will be a part of the ASTROCON 2017 convention in Casper Wyoming in advance of the total eclipse of the sun on Monday, August 21, 2017.
Would your club like to know how other clubs around the country:
1) Offer fun and interesting club meetings
2) Conduct public star parties
3) Build their own observatory
4) Enhance personal viewing experiences for club members
5) Get young people active in astronomy
6) Conduct digital imaging workshops
7) Collaborate with professional astronomers.
If you are interested in sharing what your club does with other convention attendees, please feel free to bring a small display to set up and staff in areas that will be set aside for this purpose in the convention hotel.
