*** SAS Members *** We’re open for business tonight, 7/29 for our July Member’s observing session. Just to clarify.. you DO NOT NEED to be a member of our group to come out and enjoy the night sky with us. We just call it a member’s session to distinguish it from our public session which we had on the 22nd. See you there!
