> Hey all,
 
> Our local club (Southern Oregon Skywatchers) is trying to get our
> meeting schedule worked out for the coming year. No one wants to be
> President because they're the one who gets to talk for the whole

> Are any of you willing (or able) to speak? We meet at the Central

> City Council chambers the 3rd Wednesday of every month. Central Point
> Oregon, is 5 miles from Medford in the Southwest part of the state

> Sacramento.
> I think any topic related to the hobby would be fine: image

equipment, you name it. What are you good at?
> The meetings usually last about 90 minutes, taking into account usaul
