Hi All,
We'd just like to announce that this years Burren Starparty is going to be held on September 14-15th.
This is a free observing event for all like minded skywatchers, you dont need a scope as the club will be providing 2 club scopes for public use. The location affords a good dark sky and many things to do and visit during the daylight hours.
We intend starting at 7.30 pm on both nights and run well into the night, starting at this time gives time for people to mingle and setup their scopes before it gets dark.
This event is dependent on clear skies, so will not go ahead if the weather is not good. For more details see

Thanks

Thanks Roy, but I'm afraid it is clashing with another event, that I am already committed too.Roy Stewart wrote: Sorry about the short notice
