Thick horizon to horizon clouds plus threat of
thunderstorms tonight
have forced us to
CANCEL
tonight's observing event for these children.
To our recollection, this is only the 2nd cancellation
in our long history
of doing these events for the patients from Akron
Children's Hospital. |

Important Outreach Event:
Camp Ed Bear
(formerly known as Camp CHOPS*)
at
Camp
Carl**
Come out to
show the children the wonders
of the night sky - you'll be glad you did!
Exact coordinates of observing field
(for auto GPS units or computerized telescopes):
N41.1180° W81.0999° => N41° 07' 05" W81° 06' |
|
We'll arrive by 8:00pm and set up telescopes in the
field to the left of the main camp access driveway off
Calvin Rd. Campers
will arrive in small groups throughout the evening.
This is the first of two events we conduct yearly for children
from Children's Hospital at camps around the area. |
