Bill,
There is not a lot of difference between a public field night and a star party.
Public is usually that, it's for the general public to come and have a look through the scopes.
A star Party is usually, but not always, a bunch of observers who get together just to share the experience as a group of friends.
Then there is a Star Camp! Now that is something altogether different!! That is when anyone can attend and stay (camping style or Accommodation) for several days and nights and events are held. Competitions, Lectures, outings, etc.
Ice in Space is holding one in Victoria this Oct/Nov. It will be fantastic hint, hint!
