Club-related
email for club
members is now handled through
Yahoo Groups. If you are a club member but have not joined
the
Egroups
list, email Les so
your email address can be added. The WTA Egroups list (westtxastro)
is a great way to stay abreast of club events and activities and to
stay
in touch with other club members.
Public Star Party at Big Spring State Park
Club members will be setting up telescopes (weather permitting) at the Big Spring State Park
on Saturday, June 19th. Viewing will begin when it gets dark and
continue until about 11:00 p.m. There will be no fee required to
enter the park.
New Members...
New club members can now subscribe to the eGroup using the link you'll find just below the list of club officers on the homepage. Subscribing to this Yahoo Group is important because that's how we communicate about our events.
Astrophotos of Club Members
Links are being added to
the photos of club members. Follow the link for
"astrophotography" from those links highlighted with red stars on
the home page. Or, click direct here.
WTA Prude Ranch Club Star Party
This year's Prude Ranch star party will be held October 8-10.
Yahoo Group
Club
members use a
private Yahoo Group to communicate. It's a quick way to
coordinate observing sessions and star parties and we use it a lot!
If you are not familiar with Yahoo Groups and need
step-by-step
instructions, click here.
If you need further help, please do not hesitate to email Les
or any club officer.
