Erm, but why choose a day (or night) when the moon interferes with looking at deep sky objects?

Hi RIDHWAN,

Maybe you can provide some background information for this event (eg. who's the organiser, what is the purpose of the event etc.) . What are the plans for the night ? Who are the participants / intended receipients ?

Since it looks like the organisers are collecting entrance fees, i would think that all these should be provided before any further invitation to join.

Regards,
Sam

This event is sponsor by Woodlands Zone 11 Resident Committee. Foods and Drink also sponsor out from Macdonalds. The plans for the night is looking through the stars and planets, other than that I really need a volunteers least four people to come down with their telescopes plus one speaker to give a talks about this event. the main attention is resident. If this event is a successful I will make it another Astrogazer more prepare and better in 2009. If not this is the last event I make it up due to not much people are coming down to this event. So please do call me if you're free to be one of volunteer for this event. The target of people is 50 to 100 so least I need to sell this ticket as many as possible least around 80 or above. So I wish all of those astronomer who are free please had a time to come down at this event. :D

Do we come down and buy the ticket on the spot or do we have to buy it at the RC prior?
