Terri, the 1:51 pm NOAA is 15 to 22 mph until 8 pm, then 13 mph.  Frank and I 
are willing to go, but if it is real bad, we won't unpack the car. If it dies 
down, then we will set up. However, we should have at least 5 scopes for 500 
people. I think we have Don, Sam, Frank, Albert and Terri. If we all are 
willing to drive out there that is fine. Let us know if you officially cancel, 
otherwise we are driving out there. Take care, Sam

Here's the vote on this end.
Don, Sam, Frank, & Terri are willing to try this star party.
Mike, if you wish to come along, I have you already scheduled.


Albert & Marc, I haven't heard any input from you two about
tonight, so if you have a moment, drop me a reply so
we know you are coming as well.


I will confirm with Bruce, in a moment after i send this email.


The list I sent out yesterday still stands for the attendance.
If there are changes, I need to know about it soon so i can
inform our contact at the school. Thanks.


See you all there!
Terri

Terri, NOAA indicated 16 mph winds with gusts to 24 mph until 8 pm, then only 
13 mph winds. It may be possible to set up just south of the school buildings 
since the winds are to be out of the north. That may give us somewhat of a wind 
break. The main objects we will be looking at are the moon, jupiter, venus and 
orion nebula, so a blocked Northern view won't hurt. We will have problems 
polar aligning, but with 500 people, we will probably only have one object per 
scope and they will be easy to find. If you decide to go ahead, we need to make 
sure all our scopes that rsvp'd will show. I don't want another year like last 
year when Frank and I were the only scopes with 500 people, it was very 
stressful. I am willing to try it tonight, but everyone needs to commit. If 
there is swirling dust, we just won't unload the cars.  Anyway, let everyone 
know if it is cancelled or not. Take care, Sam
