We had a fabulous time at Mahoning Valley Astronomical Society's OTAA event last night. The food was good & plentiful. Dr. John Feldmeier gave a talk on his research using the Hobby Eberly Telescope at McDonald Observatory. All groups gave an update on club activities. Dave Jessie talked for ACA explaining about our outreach programs at Camp Carl & Camp Cheerful and star parties at our observatory. To top off the event, the skies were perfect and all instruments at Cortese Observatory were operational. I was fortunate to be able to operate the 12.5" Newtonian which gave amazing views of Saturn, Great Hercules Cluster, Ring Nebula, and Albireo. The Milky Way was easily visible and forerunners of the Perseid Meteor Shower were showing up to highlight the evening with one leaving a spectacular smoke trail.
