Some updates on Snake Valley
Firstly, a couple of short announcements. Steve Fleming has volunteered to do a short presentation on the Saturday afternoon. This will be a version of the one he and Dr Terry Moon will be presenting at NACAA next year on the subject of Citizen Astronomy. I am also planning to do a short presentation myself on the Great American Eclipse, hopefully with Jen's assistance as far as images are concerned (although I am sure Jen will say a word or 2!!).
Secondly, I have organised a couple of donations for door prizes. One is in hand, the other should arrive this week and once it is in hand I will let everyone know about those.
Thirdly, bookings are still coming in, current list is as follows.
If I have missed anyone, please let me know!!

We still have 2 free cabins, so if you have not yet booked, grab them now.
Don't forget, the spit roast is on again on the Saturday evening. Cost is $10 per head. In the past we have made some donations from the surplus from the roast. I am proposing that we look at donating to the Movember Campaign for men's mental health. Happy to listen to any alternative suggestions, but I think this is a suitable cause. The majority of our attendees are male and this is an issue that can affect any one of us. Let me know what you think!!
