1 Nov 2025: Telescope Night at St Andrew State Park
23 Jan 2026: Telescope Night at Sweetbay
If no specific announcement above, contact one of the officers to find if we are meeting that month.
Meeting Location
Regular meetings are held at the Science and Discovery Center located at 308 Airport Rd, near the intersection of Jenks and Airport Road. Usually, we meet in the old Junior Museum building. Park in Airport Rd lot and walk to old building on Jenks through iron gate and gazebo. Limited-mobility folks can park in the close parking lot, but there are few spaces and we generally like to reserve them for people that need them or must carry equipment to the lecture room. See map (loads slowly). Park at the building NW of Wilson funeral home and walk to the diamond-shaped roof.
Stargazing Saint George Island
Ian McGorty, an intern at WFSU, made a video about Astronomy at St George Island State Park.
The telescopes will be used as an educational resource and for club Star Parties. When not being used for official club
business, members in good standing will be able to check out the scopes for personal use.
