Although our main event is scheduled 8 - 10 p.m. both nights, the brochure reads; ongoing throughout the day: 8 p.m. - 10 p.m. Brad Reck has indicated he can cover 12 p.m. - 6 p.m. in the event some folks do drop in. I'm sure he would appreciate a little help. I'll cover both evenings with a presentation introducing folks to what they might see through our scopes. Sunday evening also wraps up the Ralph's raffle. If you haven't bought your tickets, you still have a chance this weekend.
