If you are going to coordinate this, fine, but I was thinking it was my or Marge's duty. That's good too. It was supposed to be sched for August or September. Our contact was Kim Westcott, the Admin Manager at Lowell. The guy that contacted you, Russell Tweed, gave you tour packages in an attchment that would have to be paid for, $200-$500. We certainly don't want one of those prepackaged deals, so we have to say we're an Astronomy Club and we just want to see the observatory and that's it, no box lunches, lectures, or fees (or nominal at most). I would try for an August Saturday afternoon around 1st qtr or even a Sat-Sun before a Cherry Rd star party could be worked out. 5MM is also right down the road from the DCS fire road turn-off.
