Hi all.
On behalf of the ASNSW, I would like to extend an invitation to members to come along to our June Astrocamp at the Society's property "Wiruna" at Ilford NSW.
Accommodation at Wiruna is mostly camping, although we do have a two bedroom house and a four bedroom bunkhose if needed. A warm sleeping bag is a necessity.
You would need to bring food and an Esky as we do have very good cooking facilities in the communal kitchen. There are hot showers and a septic toile system so there are some creature comforts.
Warm clothes would be required as the temperature will drop below zero overnight, however, if the sky is clear the Milky Way will cast a shadow if you hold your arms outstretched.
Normally there are between 25- and 30 members at our monthly astrocamps and we usually invite other clubs to join us duriong the year to observe under very nice dark skies.
If any IceInSPace members would like to join us, please email me at
don@bintel.com.au
We will cook a dinner on Saturday night for all. Hope to see you there.
regards
Don Whiteman
VP ASNSW
