Urgent Message From Our Club President
« on: January 16, 2024, 03:07:57 PM »
An urgent message from the Club President:

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to bring to your attention to an insightful article recently featured in the Hamilton Spectator that aligns with our shared interests and values. The piece highlights the less than successful attempts we have had with the City of Hamilton to offer a path towards restoring the utility and usability of our Observatory. There is a link to the article below.

Best regards,
Andy Blanchard

President, Royal Astronomical Society of Canada Hamilton Centre

For anyone that doesn't have a Spec subscription - I believe you can sign up for free to see the article and add your comments to the page. I responded to several people and like all the favourable messages.
