Good afternoon attendees of Oct 6 Night Sky Training session...
I'm not seeing that many attendees needing help at this event or even
attending this event.
So, here's what i'm looking for... if you are attending as a teacher, let
me know. You can do this by return email or change your RSVP status by the
day before the event.
http://www.pasaz.org/forums/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=2707&day=2018-10-6
Teachers i see in the RSVP list are:
Roger
Terri
Attending to learn at this event are:
Rick
Don (ride from Rick)
Pete
*Mike, this event is at your house*. Are you not attending?
RSVP now.
If i have the above list incorrect, let me know.
Now, to the additional info....
Ron, who is copied on this email.... wants to know
1) if we are interested in *changing the venue* from Mike's house to Ron's
house.
Ron says he has room to accommodate the scope set up and the potluck.
Put in our 2 cents as to *if you want to move the venue* to Ron's house for
this event...
This is a Private, PAS Members and their immediate families ONLY event.
Ron does have a theater room, for a movie after the star party, if the star
party breaks up earlier in the evening.
2) Ron is offering to *do a planetarium show* earlier in the day to provide
a What's up this night? show. I am guessing his show would be 1 hour in
length as most of his shows are.
If this sounds like a good idea, my thought is this:
The potluck, at Ron's or Mike's starts at 5pm.
Last time there was a planetarium show and then a potluck at MIkes, those
of us who attended both, ended up late to the potluck as they had to go
pick up food and bring it to the party. And that took about an hour. so, i
suggested this time frame for this days 2 activites, if there is enough
interest in having a planetarium show prior to the NSTS potluck.
*3pm to 4pm Planetarium show*
*4pm to 5pm - pick up food for potluck or all pitch in for pizza*
*5pm potluck*
*6pm class set up*
*7pm is start of class*
Let me know if you have an interest in attending the planetarium show
before being at the potluck, and
if the time frame above works in your schedule.
Originally i set the time for 2:30 planetarium show but if we are doing a
EVERYONE PITCH IN FOR PIZZA potluck, then William and i can run to get the
pizza from Dominoes on our way back to Mike's, or if the event moves to
Ron's, we can run and get the pizza then. And everyone can bring cash to
pay for their part of the pizza, equal shares.
Give Ron and me your input on this idea.
then the 3rd question i have is:
3) Future events where by* we can put a planetarium show* on the same night
as a PAS Members Only star party at Mike's... would you want me to schedule
this so Ron can do a "What's up in tonight's sky" presentation for the
attendees?
Input requested.
Thanks
Terri, Event Manager
Many thanks to Ron for offering these options.
Get back to me.
This email is going out to PAS Members on the PASMembers list serv. If you
received 2 copies, you RSVP'd to attend the NSTS on this night and i'm
looking for input from you.
Here are some events we could have a planetarium show about the night sky,
before the event at Mike's:
Mar 9 2019 NSTS
Looking at our 2018-2019 schedule,
we don't have that many events at Mike's this
school year.
Do we want to set up more events?
We probably should have some dark sky events for members only and then
maybe a couple dark sky events open to the public. Ideas? *Mike?*
