I am a confirmed starter (now that I can't get off work the following week to venture down to Coombell), and I will be there with my 12.5" Dob. Looking forward to some dark skies. I will probably overnight it...are tents required?
Hi All who are thinkig of coming to my place next month, I have 2acres paddock for you to camp on ,but if you don't have a tent just bring a matress and you can sleep on the lounge floor or the study,also have a spare bedroom and a spare tent(first in best dressed)
As paul said bring plenty of warm clothes as it can get fairly cold.
Please pm me a couple of days in advance what facilaties you require and if you wish to stay more than one night.astroron
Unfortunately I'll have to miss this one Hopefully I'll see ya's all at the next gathering though You must be close to your official opening wouldn't you Tony?
Ok folks, here's the map to Ron's place. The map assumes you are coming from Bris Vegas and are coming via Landsbourough, through Maleny and Conondale.
If you come through Eumundi and then Kenilworth, through to Little Yabba Creek, then about another 3-5kms then turn left at the Cambroon caravan park (Caravan pk will be on your right). When you turn from the caravan park you will cross a single lane wooden bridge.
This is all weather permitting of course. Anyone got an old scope they'd be willing to sacrific to the Gods of Astronomy to ensure a nice weekend?
If anyone has any of the following eyepieces bring them along. 32mm Celestron plossl, 20mm silver synta plossl, 15mm celestron "omni"plossl, 10mm celestron "e-lux", 9.7 mm Meade series 4000 super plossl.
