I will be having a Venus Transit / Night Observation Event this Tuesday 8/6/04 from 11am-9pm at Elias Primary School (Pasir Ris). I'm a parent volunteer for their Science Club. This is not a commercial event But might have future commercial implication.

I would appreciate 1-2 volunteers to help out. (preferably those staying in the East). Can pickup you guys at PR MRT 2-ways plus meals (by school) provided. Needs manpower from 8.30am to 9.30pm.

Program for the Day
No of attendees - 50 (pri 5 & 6, teachers & parents)
They will be divided into 4 groups each having some tasks to do
during the transit; i.e
a. making of Sun Viewers
b. taking video/photo of the event
c. using the Sun Scope to make some Scientific Measurement
d. locating Night objects

Tasks of the Volunteers :-
1. Help to setup scopes; Meade 3.5", 7" & 12" .
2. Help to monitor scopes
3. Give briefing to the students on the events. etc
