Is there a club?

Can someone direct me to a club where I can take my new telescope and get some help setting up ?I live in the Dandenong area.

Hi Di,

Welcome to IIS. I'd second the MPAS suggestion above. It's a little drive from Dandenong but a great group of very helpful people.

Cheers,
Af.

Hi Paula, tried to email you on your website but your page seems to be having email problems..
I took your advise and contacted The Mornington Peninsula Astronomical Society in Mt Martha and left a phone message but have had no response any idea when I can go there to get help to set up the Telescope? As I have done a half ass job

Definitely contact MPAS. Great club and the nicest bunch of people you will ever meet. They also have a great club house and semi dark observing / astrophotography site at the Briars about 30 minutes from you.
