Telescope Clinic
Do you have a telescope and want to learn how to use it? Bring your telescope to our clinic and let our experienced members assist in showing you how to use your scope.
We can also collimate onsite (mirror and lens alignment) most telescopes that need it, and as well we can do minor repairs onsite. These services are provided at no charge. Please be sure to bring all parts of your telescope (tube, mount, eyepieces, finderscope etc) if you have them.

Astrophotography Clinic
Have you ever wanted to try and take pictures of the night sky, the moon, planets etc, but were unsure how? Bring along your camera and learn the basics from our experienced astrophotographers and take an astrophoto using your very own camera.
