I still have the posters that I used for Astronomy Day. I used a hockey puck
as the Sun and that put Pluto 320m away. And maybe do something about the
winter constellations.

But as of now the forecast is saying mainly clear but cold. I’ll have my scope
there, the Park will have theirs. We will have a nearly Full Moon.

A Plan B could be a short hike around the interpretive area doing a solar
system walk. Shorter than the walk at Clear lake (1-2 Kms) but still cover much
of the same information.

Got the poster that Jen made for upcoming December events at the park. It will
take place at the Park Centre. We should also have a Plan B incase of cloud
cover.

Got a message from Jen at Spruce Woods. On Sunday Dec. 11, she’s looking to
have an interpretive event with some observing. It would be from 6-8. I’ll
send on any further information as it comes. Would be nice to look at some of
the winter objects from a dark site.
