The Rochester Astronomy Club will hold a Members Only Star Party on Friday, June 12 at the DJMOF.

This should be a glorious night for astronomy, with an opportunity for members to enjoy dark-sky observing, telescope time, and fellowship under the stars.

Primary date: Friday, June 12
Backup date: Saturday, June 13
Location: DJMOF — members know the site

Because this is a private observing site, the location will not be posted publicly. Members who need details and updates should ask at the club meeting or send an e-mail.

If weather or sky conditions do not cooperate, we may instead hold a Scope-Pointed-Down meeting in the MCCCR.
