The 11th SNAKE VALLEY ASTRONOMY CAMP  

5th - 9th NOVEMBER 2010


Watch this thread for upcoming details about the November 2010 SVAA Astronomy Camp at Snake Valley  

Bookings can be made now if you know you will be coming  

Copy/paste this booking information into your post:

Name:
How many people:
Number of nights:
Which nights:
Bunkhouse or Camping:
Saturday Night Feast:



*Please note, Bunkhouses CANNOT be booked for only one night only.
We have previously lost bookings due to bunkhouses being used for only one night when people wanted to book them for 3 or 4 nights and couldn't because of the 'one night' stayer booking it first. Exeptions are accepted if you are in a shared bunkhouse with others staying more than one night.
Alternatively, the Campsite is available for one night if that's all you can stay.


*Alcohol is allowed, but 'Drunkeness' will not be tolerated. Offenders will be asked to leave.

Snake Valley Astronomy Camps are fun, low key social events. A white light ban is in force (as expected), but due to the nature of our Camps, imagers and observers are all mixed in together having a great social astronomy experience. Visual observers that may be offended by some stray Laptop light may be affected.

The fee for the Saturday Night Feast goes to the local CFA.

Ken, jag me in for 4 nights in a cabin.  At this stage it will be 5 weeks after my radiation therapy ceases to the camp, so hopefully I will be feeling a lot better and have my taste buds back. Also and this might be wishful thinking, put me down for the feast...
