Greetings MERAL Presidents, ALCors, editors, officers and others.Attached are the December sky maps courtesy of John Goss of the Astronomical League. If you need the PDF versions of the maps send me a reply and I will send them to you. I also have Spanish versions of the maps, but I can only include a few attachments to this email, so contact me if you would like me to send them to you.Also, Gary Hand (retired proprietor of Hands On Optics in Damascus, Maryland) is a member of the Westminster Astronomical Society and will be traveling down to the Winter Star Party (WSP) in Florida. https://www.scas.org/winter-star-party/
He is making his way to WSP by plane and is looking to work a deal with another amateur astronomer who may be driving or auto-training, to bring a couple of his scopes to meet him there, knowing that will be safer than trying to bring them by plane.
If you can help Gary, please contact him directly at (301) 938-3525 to make arrangements.Please share this information with your club members and use the sky maps in your newsletters and post them to your websites and social media pages.Clear skies,Don KnabbMERAL chair
