info@naperastro.org
The Naperville Astronomical Association is a non-profit astronomy club with a membership of over two-hundred individuals and families, mainly from the southwest Chicagoland (Illinois, USA) area. What we share is an interest in exploring the universe beyond our planet, both with our eyes and our minds. What we have found is that our enjoyment of our hobby can be enhanced when we share it with others; the young with the old, the beginner with the advanced amateur and the professional. |

South Shore Astronomical Society
Norwell, MA USA
ssastros.org/
In 1958 a group of Astronomy lovers, got together and formed the "South Shore Astronomical Society." Today, almost 49 years later, the passion of those founding few still perseveres. Our joy is Astronomy with the ultimate goals of fun and knowledge.
We meet on the first Wednesday of every month and schedule viewing sessions around the new moon, usually twice a month on Saturdays. Within our club, we have individuals who have delved into various areas within the scope of astronomy; astrophotography, solar viewing, meteor, asteroid, comet observations, deep sky, binary stars, etc.
We are a relatively small, informal club. The meetings begin at 7:30 p.m., usually with a speaker, followed with old and new business and ending with open topics. Come join us at one of our meetings and talk to some of the members. Astronomy is our reason for getting together, friends and family is the result of this get-together, passion and knowledge is the reason we return.
The public is always welcome at meetings and viewing sessions! |

Southwest Washington Stargazers
Vancouver, WA USA

Dan Gerhards, dan@seansastronomyshop.com
The Southwest Washington Stargazers was started by the staff of Sean's Astronomy Shop and some regular customers, but it is an independent group. There are around 30 members with about half showing up to each meeting. Meetings run about 45 minutes, but many members stay and chat for over an hour afterwards--besides there are usually cookies or doughnuts left to be eaten! We have a telescope library with a 10-Inch Hardin Dob and a Coronado PST. We have a small regular library, too. There are no dues of officers, but we do have official T-shirts and a planning committee. There is a low-traffic mail list which you are welcome to join: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/Southwest_Washington_Stargazers. The group meeting location is at the Manor Evangelical church (directions can be found on the website under links) on the second and fourth Fridays of the month at 8:00pm. |
