April 2017 FAS Meeting

The Forsyth Astronomical Society will host their next monthly meeting on April 25th at 7:30 PM at Kaleideum (formerly Sciworks) in Winston-Salem. The presentation for this month will be “Chasing Pluto” and in-depth, behind-the -scenes look
at the New Horizons mission. Following the presentation portion we will have a brief business meeting and as always there will be an informal social gathering 30 minutes or so before the meeting. All meetings are open to the public and free of charge, all are welcome. Hope to see you there.

A reminder to club members: It’s getting to be that time again, we are coming up on the May renewal for annual dues. You can pay them at any meeting between this month and May. Another reminder, also, as per a club vote a few months back the dues are now $35/year for individuals, $40/year for a family membership and our student rate is still $5/year. For any one else, if you have ever wanted to join our organization now is the prime time to do it. Don’t forget to renew your Astronomical League membership as well if you participate in that group. Don’t know about the Astronomical League ask club member Sean Wood, the FAS AL corespondent.
