Renewals and subscriptions now
available for 2001
TVS membership renewals and applications for 2001 will remain at the same levels as those set for 2000, at least through February. Watch future editions of Prime Focus for updates on alternative membership levels.
The club also offers discounted subscriptions to your favorite astronomy magazines during our renewal period. A year of Sky & Telescope can be yours for $29.95, and you can enjoy 12 issues of Astronomy for $29.00. In both cases, your subscription should be marked on the membership/renewal application on page 8. The subscription offers end with the February 2001 general meeting.
Welcome to two new members
Just in time to join us for the solstice potluck, Vic McPherson and the Rob Watson Family have become TVS members. Be sure to introduce yourself to these new folks at the holiday party.
Our checks are in the mail
The board approved orders for observing publications that are popular with many members. We have ordered 20 copies of the Observer's Handbook 2001 at $13 each, 10 copies of the Beginner's Observing Guide, also at $13, and 20 copies of the Observer's Calendar 2001, at $8 apiece. As soon as these various publications arrive, they will be available for members to purchase at general meetings.
Meeting dates change to 4th Fridays
As you may have noticed, our general meeting dates have cycled uncomfortably close to preferred observing weekends. To make it easier for you to observe and attend, we are resetting the meetings to the 4th Friday of each month. The only exceptions will be November and December, when we must work around the holidays. Please see the new calendar in the adjacent column.
