Images from the Camp Twin Lakes Event
November 11, 2006, Rutledge, Georgia
Camp Twin
Lakes is a youth organization dedicated to kids with special medical
needs. The chapter was asked to host the camp's first "astronomy"
event by Josh Sweat of Twin Lakes in October, and several chapter
members volunteered immediately. We had originally planned to have
an outdoor event with telescopes, but the weather did not cooperate.
So, Larry Owens volunteered to give a NASA Night Sky Network
presentation called "Shadows & Silhouettes" to 60 eager kids and adults,
while chapter members Jon Wood, Fred Rose, Clevis & Debbie Jones and
Angus Owens helped stage the event. We all had a great time, and
the kids had a chance to get excited about astronomy. Many thanks
to the tireless efforts of our volunteers!
