Hi Liz,

Tell me more, what is the organisation?
Where is the camp on the coast?
What number of people?
Any particular items you would like to view?
What age group are we talking?

Anything else that can help me understand your request, I may be able to help you if I know more of what you want.

Thanks, Dennis.

I wonder if Mapleton Obs would be suitable?
Or is it going to more of a "sidewalk astronomy" event.
