Annual Star Party
and Leonids viewing

Our Star Party this year will coincide with the Leonids Meteor Shower, and we will be holding it at Dave Gordon's
fairly dark site at his residence in Midrand.  The Party starts out with a Bring 'n Braai from about 16:00 on the 17th
of November and then we get down to some serious viewing in general - 'til however late you wish to carry on.
SO bring your 'scope(s) and/or binoculars and have some fun and good viewing.

The Leonids shower should start getting interesting in the early hours of Sunday morning ( 18th ) and we can try our
hand ( or is it eye )  at counting them  - hopefully in 100's per hour..........

Here is a Map to help you get to Dave's place.
