Congratulations to all those who took part in the inaugural NSW IceInSpace AstroCamp!
Special thanks to the organizers for helping make the event a
huge success.
The weather provided some very welcome observing opportunities at night
and the right temperatures for a refreshing dip in the river during the day.
AstroCamp was a fabulous chance to put a face to the many monickers, to renew
existing friendships and to strike up some new ones - plus see and look through
a large range of telescopes and to chat day and night about the universe's
No. 1 hobby.
There was a surprise visit by Ron Knight (aka Astroron) who drove from Perth via
Victoria (including a 1000km detour near Esperance due to road closure). Ron was
en route to Queensland but couldn't miss the chance to catch up with the IceInSpace
community and to get some observing in. Now that's dedication!
Special thank to iceman, h0ughy and the many people who worked behind the
scenes.
Hats-off to the local RFS members and their families for the catering.
This time of year is always a good reminder of the work these fabulous
volunteers do to help protect our communities and families, so please be sure
to donate to the RFS if you haven't done so this year already.
IceInSpace has put Lostock on the astronomical map and what a great find
and a beautiful venue.
Mai and I would like to thank you all. Our two young nephews also had
a great time.
Once again, congratulations!
