Outreach to The Marshland Society

2nd February 2016 by Andy Milner

Outreach to The Marshland Society.

Venue: Terrington St Clement Village Hall

Monday 11/01/2016 found us giving a talk, display and obs session to the Marshland Society It was a very good turnout approx 40-45 people. Our Chariman John Craythorne’s talk went down very well with a nice little Q & A session afterwards. They were very impressed with our telescope and binocular display and came for a good look around after the talk. We were very lucky too, as the sky cleared for a brief time so we were able to show them the constellations and let them have a look at the Orion Nebula which they were well impressed with. So it all went off very well and I think we may get asked back in the future as seems to be the normal now.
