Welcome!

The southern tier of Virginia offers some of the best observing skies along the Atlantic coast. Come join us at a star party at Staunton River State Park near Scottsburg, Virginia on March 21-25, 2012. The party is limited to the first 150 people who register, so click on the link above and register soon!

We hope we have done our planning well, and picked the time because you will be able to see four of the major planets (Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn) as well as trying your abilities at a Messier Marathon. The temperatures should be cool, but we wanted to hold this star party before the pollen season starts (thanks to the lack of winter this year, we might have missed this target). We will have a swap table where you can trade items as well as vendors and presentations to amuse you during the daylight hours.

Registration for the spring star party is now closed ... but look for information about the fall star party soon!
