10 Years! 120 Issues!
We congratulate Tamas Kriska and Agnes Keszler for their 10 years of service as editors of our club newsletter, Focal Point. They
started with the January, 2011 issue and have faithfully published it every month without exception. So the December 2020 issue was
their 120th. The MAS cannot thank them enough!
Ottawa Lake Permission
Our thanks to Jason Doyle who secured a letter of permission for members
of our club to use the relatively dark area of Ottawa Lake State Recreation Area of the Southern Unit - Kettle Moraine State Forest after 11:00PM when otherwise
you cannot. It is a good idea to
print out the letter and have it with you.
And keep in mind that you still need to purchase a day pass or an
annual state park sticker.
Zit Observatory
Having set up the E-Scope
last year, we have reroofed and re-sided the observatory. But we also raised the interior for more
clearance and replaced the door with a taller one.
Current Universal Time
120 Issues of the Focal Point! We both congratulate
and thank the Focal Point editing team of Tamas Kriska and Agnes
Keszler for publishing our great newsletter for the last 10 years. These images show the first page of the 120 issues.
