Here are the draft results from the just concluded 2010 All Arizona Messier Marathon. Please DO NOT use this for publication as it is in need of some corrections. See notes in the organization column, specifically 1, 8 and 8. Yes there are two 8's - need last name. To SAC and EVAC president and treasurer, please check your members for correct spelling. Also, for those with 109, 108 and 107 objects, check for current member as they have satisfied requirements for first, second and third place telescope plates. Congratulation to them! To everyone else, please review this list to see if there are any errors of omission, eclipsis, or neglect. Get back to me by Wednesday with a positive or negative response. I need to know one way or another. After this I'll publish the final results that can be used for publication, forward it to the Messier Marathon Results Page and order the telescope plates. Wow, look at the number of first place observers! :)) 2010 All Arizona Messier Marathon Results num name scope organ. notes 109 Micah Abel 10" Dob (1) M30 109 Salvodor Aguirre 10" Dob (2) M30 109 Lynn Blackburn 120mm ref SAC M30 109 Steve Dodder 20" Dob SAC M30 109 Claude Haynes 10" Dob EVAC M30 109 Jack Jones 20" Dob SAC M30 109 Greg Kettell 111mm ref (3) M30 109 Sid Leach 14.5" Dob n/a M30 109 Paul Lind 14" Dob SAC M30 109 Joan McGue 8" Dob SAC M30 109 Jimmy Ray 11" SCT SAC M30 109 George Robinson 10" Dob (4,5) M30 109 Rick Rotramel 10" Newt SAC M30 109 Ken Sikes 16" Dob n/a M30 109 Scott Tannehill 12" Dob EVAC M30 109 Rick Tejera 60ETX SAC M30 109 Wayne Thomas 11" SCT EVAC/SAC M30 109 Ray Vorbeck 8" SCT SAC M30 108 Howard Anderson 10" SCT EVAC/SAC M30 M74 108 Cal Drake 10" Dob (6) M30 M74 108 Dean Oertle 10" Dob (7) M30 M72 108 David Trogan 8" SCT EVAC M30 M72 107 Ray Heinle 12" SCT EVAC M30 M72 M73 107 Jon Koester 10" SCT EVAC M30 M72 M73 107 Bruce Monte unknown EVAC M30 M72 M9 103 Aaron Prillama 8" Dob SAC/EVAC(8) 103 Scott Saari 8" Dob SAC 100 Derek Youngon 11" SCT (8) 98 David Kroeppler 90mm Mak (9) 98 Scott Kroeppler 90mm Mak (9) 84 David Hatch 13" Dob EVAC 70 Neville Cole 12" SCT SAC 65 Daniel Butters 10" Dob EVAC 65 Michelle Butters 10" Dob EVAC 65 Melvin Harrison 10" SCT EVAC 63 Christopher Vedeler100mm ref n/a 62 John Krawczak 8" SCT (10) 55 Ken Reeves 3" Dob(11) SAC Notes 1 - can't read name, on same sheet as Claude Haynes. 2 - Sociedad Astronomica de Sonora Carl Sagan, MEXICO 3 - Clifton Park, New York 4 - Auburn, CA; Astronomical League - Member at Large 5 - By memory, no chart, no Push To, no GOTO! 6 - Seattle, WA 7 - Truckee, CA; Astronomical League - Member at Large 8 - Need correct last name 9 - Astronomical League - Member at Large 10 - Minnetonka, MN; MN Astronomical Society 11 - Yes it was a 3" f4!
