The 2025 RASC Halifax Centre BBQ was a success!
Members and their guests are invited to attend the Annual BBQ & Observing night to the St. Croix Observatory (SCO) next year.
Date: To be determined.
Time: BBQ start time 5:00 PM ADT approx., observing sometime after 8:00 PM when the stars begin to shine. It promises to be a good night for observing so bring warm clothes and your observing gear.
Place: St. Croix Observatory
Burgers (beef & chicken) and hotdogs with all the fixings, chips, veggies & dip, pop, juice, water, coffee/tea/hot chocolate, cookies, apples and homemade apple cake. You won’t be hungry! Members with special nutrition requirements are invited to bring their own food for cooking on the grill.
Please bring your own plates and utensils.
Carpe noctum. Join us in the observing field of our gem in the woods.
Reminder: Any headlamp or flashlight you bring must be a red light or be covered with red cellophane.
For those new to astronomy and/or are visual observers, bring your binoculars (and telescopes if you have one) - you can see some wonderful objects in the sky. The Astroimagers in our Centre will be there taking pictures of the night skies that I am sure they would love to share.
Bring layers of warm clothing to ensure you stay warm from the time of the BBQ through the observing session. There is a Warm Room and warm beverages will be available throughout the evening should anyone get cold, but be prepared for a cooler evening outdoors.
