Update 22/1/10

dear All.

We have the go ahead for our first night observing.

Here is a copy of the letter I received from the President of the central Coast Soaring Club.

Hello Geoff
Thanks you for your recent letter enquiring about use of our clubhouse/grounds in Bloodtree Road for New Moon observation sessions.
As promised I took your request to our committee meeting this week and all were happy to have your "team" utilise our facillities as required. As discussed a fee of $5 per person would be payable to cover incidental costs (tea/coffe/lighting etc etc).
It would be best that each date be arranged through me and then I would advise Kurt (live-in caretaker) of the intended date(s). We would like him or some other member to be in attendance on each occassion (initially particularly). We have members that may well delight in perhaps taking you up on your invitation to "have a look."
I would point out that we only have tank water on site which should not be consumed unboiled. Also, we would request that toilet flushing be restricted to No 2's (?) only, except at end of evening of course. Most of what you would need to operate reasonably comfortably is available for use.
Give me a call if you want to organise a February visit - I note you/we have a new moon on Sat 14 Feb '10.

Kind Regards
Wayne Page
President



Thanks to everyone for your patience with this, its taken a while from the initial idea to this point where we can try it out.


I guess the first thing to do is pick a date or two for February, so we can have our first visit.
I need only to advise the President and / or the Caretaker af the dates.
So lets go, lets get a date happening on perhaps even a new thread so I can advise them of our intentions.

rgds.
