SUMMARY:MAS LLCC Star Party Weekend

Only MAS members and their immediate family members are authorized to attend scheduled events.\nThe MAS does not call a star party “on” or “off” for any particular evening or weekend – it is up to the individual members to use the weather resources available and decide if it is worth making the trip.  Check the MAS Forum to see if others are going or not going \nThe site is not available for mid-week observing by members.\n\nCheck the MAS forum and state that you intend to go to LLCC for the designated weekend \nLLCC star parties may be available for Friday and Saturday evenings\, weather permitting. \nAdditional information on using the Long Lake Conservation Center\, including map and directions\,can be found on the LLCC page.
