Our Members
|
We are a group of individuals dedicated to the art and science of
astronomy. We strive to further our education and understanding of
the universe around us and to hone our skills at photographing it
through our telescopes. Our monthly meetings include informative
presentations given on a variety of topics related to astronomy.
We conduct regular observing sessions at a variety of dark sky
locations. The knowledge and experience of our members covers the
complete range from novice to scientist. While some of us are just
getting started in astronomy, others have been deeply involved in
it all of their lives. We have no age restrictions, and our
members come from all walks of life. Membership is by invitation
only.

Club Meetings

Meetings are held on the last Wednesday of each month in the Executive
Conference Room at the 24-Hour Dunkin' Donuts Shop in the Pine Island
Ridge Shopping Plaza in Davie Florida. The business portion of the meeting
commences at 7:30 PM and lasts for approximately 15 minutes. We then hold
a short intermission during which sandwiches, coffee, and donuts are
consumed, followed by a 45 minute presentation.
The meetings are adjourned and we are out of the building by
9:00 PM.
