Lots of research went into developing these dates.



Tick, to all items

except we are near a valley



We avoid school holidays and are even closer than 30 mins to towns and supplies, yet still have pure dark skies



Already done.
At the SVAA we have been running 2 Astro Camps each year filling all the above requirements for the last 6 years.
And it works http://astronomycamps.bravehost.com/home.html
Maybe QLD needs that 2nd Astro event if they don't already have one.
NSW already has several each year I think.

yep and i always have the best time each and every time i go love it
