9/10 May 1970 at Coota, were you there?

Guys,
The attached newspaper clipping is from May 11 1970, I was there and I'm wondering if anyone else there is here now?
Left to right in the pic is John Fisher, Peter Hogan, Roger Roy, Christopher Price and Mr Robert Price . Also there were Mr Les Parsons, Mr Bruce Buckman and Mr Jim Newman

I live at Coota but don't know if any of those people are still around, I know Bob Price lives down Albury way and I usually see him at the Border StarGaze, his old dome is now at the High School but is not being used, another person and myself offered to get it up and running for them but there is a distinct lack of interest.

There are a couple of interested people in Coota, two have scopes and another couple want to come up to my place for a look when it gets a bit warmer.

Cheers

Was around 18 months or so ago when I went up to the High School, they have a couple of 10" reflectors, don't recall seeing any refractors, only thing in the dome is spiders and a pier with nothing on it .

John Green is a member here and a teacher at the High School, he may know some more.

Cheers
