Next Meeting

Our next general meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 18, 2025 at 7:30 pm Eastern Time at Ojibway Nature Centre located at 5200 Matchette Road, Windsor.

One of our highlighted speaker(s) this month is our vice-predsident, Mike Mastronardi, who will be giving us a review of one or two aspects of our RASC OBSERVERS HANDBOOK. As most of us should have received the 2026 Edition by now from national office, Mike asks everyone to bring their latest copy with them as we'll be using it in his presentation. (Even an older edition will do if you don't have the 2026 edition).

Also giving a presentation this month will be Mike Dufour on a topic to be determined. Mike is one of our directorate of observing and very knowledgeable of the night sky, so I'm sure his talk will be both informative and entertaining!

We also have our monthly director of observing report on the goings on in this month's sky. Juliana Grigorescu will be providing this month's review. As well, there will likely be pictures and a report on our 80th Anniversary Banquet held last night at the Fogolar Furlan Club. It was a full house and we had a great time celebrating with friends of the Centre!

Finally, the November meeting is also important in that it is the meeting at which we nominate and elect our new club executive and council for 2026.
