[SJAA-announce] Fw: ToolKit Activity Testing in Northern California

[Bob & Brenda Havner]

Subject: ToolKit Activity Testing in Northern California


Hello Northern California Members,

The Night Sky Network will be testing out one of our brand-new
activities for the next ToolKit on Saturday, September 29th at the AANC
(Astronomical Association of Northern California) Conference. We would
like to invite you to join us at 4:30 in room 119 for a sneak peek of
the next ToolKit in action! Since so many of you plan to be there, it
seems like the perfect opportunity to get some feedback from you all
that use NSN activities regularly. Stop by for about 45 minutes to do a
fun activity and give us your two cents on how we can make it more
useful for you.

Of course, there are many more exciting things to do at the AANC-Con!
The whole event lasts from 11:00 am until midnight and includes great
activities, speakers, raffles, observing and more. For the full
schedule, directions, and other information:

You are welcome to pass this invitation on to others who may be
interested. The more the merrier. Did we mention that there will be
chocolate chip cookies? We hope to see you all there!
