[LVAS] question on 13th messier marathon

[Rob Lambert]

Matt,

No one is expected to make every event. We have over 100 members of  
various activity levels.  About 50 make 3 or 4 events a year and  
another twenty-five are what I would call the active core members. And  
even that 25 don't make every event. I probably attend the most  
activities along with a few others, and even I can't make every event.

Come join us at the Messier Marathon. If you're uncomfortable  
observing alone, use the LVAS forum group to see if anyone is going  
out to observe. We often get together at Redstone Picnic Area on the  
3rd Quarter weekends.

Talk to you later.

Rob
