I have created a new 'super secret' Meet Up forum for OAS club members only. I got the idea from this meetup.com website where folks can schedule times where they meet with one another to pursue common interests. The only thing I don't like about it... is really anyone can register and begin interacting with the other group members. Participation in our Meet Up forum will require membership in the OAS (verified by presence of email address in our club mailing list).

Within the Meet Up forum then, folks are encouraged (when they want to involve other club members at least!) to share their observing/travel plans, etc. Other members can then further discuss/inquire about these plans, announce their intention to attend as well. You get the idea!

I'll announce this (along with a reminder that we have a discussion forum in the first place!) at the next club meeting... solicit interest.

Should you see this before then, send me a private message here or email... and I'll include you immediately. I already added a few people I recognized in the 'Memberlist'. If you're one of these people and DON'T want to be included (you could just choose not to post anything), let me know and I'll remove you.

Thanks!
Jeff
