Friday night, November 8, EVAC will hold their free public star party at the
Riparian Preserve at Water Ranch, 2757 E. Guadalupe Rd., on top of the mound
south of the parking lot. This is contingent on the weather: overcast skies,
rain and wind do not make for good viewing. We will start around sunset and
continue until the park closes at 9:00pm.
If you have a telescope or binoculars please bring them and share with others.
If you would like help with your equipment you can probably find someone that
is able to help you, just introduce yourself.
