Today, the active members of a startup Metro Park Astronomy Club in Ashtabula county of Ohio met for lunch and to discuss plans for our local event for the 100 Hours of Astronomy. This event is a worldwide celebration of astronomy, and is part of the International Year of Astronomy. Our local event will take place on April 4, 2009 at a location yet to be determined. If anyone is interested in being involved in the IYA2009 in Ohio, shoot me an e-mail at sean@visualastronomy.com. Hopefully our weather will hold up, but if it doesn't we're incorporating a "plan B" of sorts.
If you're a member of a local astronomy club, don't be afraid to get out and get involved in the International Year of Astronomy! The IYA2009 can use all the amateur support it can get!
Clear skies!
