Pages: 1 Ranger Tim professor emeritus Reged: 03/25/08 Loc: SE Idaho, USA 2012 Heart of Virginia Star Party       #5038664 - 01/26/12 09:43 AM Edit   Reply   Quote Quick Reply   The date is set! November 8-11. We will be doing it another year. Hope to grow a bit as well. See the web site Heart of Va Star Party for more information. I will be updating it starting in Feb. Hope to see you there!

It has been cancelled because I am relocating to Idaho in August. There will not be anyone to shepherd the event at the camp so America has one less star party to organize. Many apologies for those that may have already set aside the time.

It still shows it as happening.

You would need to move it to a period where it did not interfere with the hunting season. But I am living in Idaho now and have no control over Virginia affairs...

There is a group camping area in the southern section called Dundo that would be perfect. We are fortunate here in Idaho to have a friend in Craters of the Moon Nat'l Park. They are very astro friendly. Post Extras:       Pages: 1
