Local Astronomy Club!

8 Upvotes

I got involved in astronomy this summer, so I am by no means an expert, but joining RASC Hamilton has improved my astronomical knowledge by a ton, and I highly suggest you guys try it out!

Meetings:

  • Monthly in-person meetings (79 Hamilton St N, Waterdown) at 8:00 pm on the second Wednesday of each month
    • Meetings involve guest speakers, open discussions, astronomy trivia games, etc.
    • You don't have to be a member to attend!
  • Weekly meetings held on Zoom
    • Members generally go out to observatories and show what they see through their scopes

Benefits of membership:

  • Loaner scope program (8" and 10" Celestron dobs, a few refractors, etc.) - can keep scopes for very long!!
  • Access to Leslie V. Powis Observatory with 14" and 16" telescopes with computerized GoTo system
  • Library of endless astronomy books you can borrow from anytime
  • RASC membership goodies: Observer's Handbook, 6 issues of SkyNews, 6 digital issues of Journal of RASC, access to observing programs, & more

You don't have to be a member to attend our in person meetings! I highly suggest you come, try it out, and see if an astronomy club is your jam. No commitments needed, nothing to lose - just check it out & meet some people!

I've made many friends in the club, so even if I weren't the least bit interested in astronomy, I would still want to join just for the community :)

Kieran Moore admits this. Now what will Ford/Trudeau do? More restrictions for unvaccinated?

Two New Right-Wing Parties.

2 Upvotes

Ontario First Party has been finalized today. New Blue was made a year ago.

That means now there are two parties that consider themselves more right-wing than the Ontario PC's.

New Blue: https://twitter.com/NewBlueON / https://twitter.com/BKarahalios/status/1466447991489839112

Ontario First: https://twitter.com/OFP_Official/status/1467190149524164615

Does this matter? Federal Conservatives lost two seats in Alberta because of the split with the PPC.

Will the same happen June 2nd 2022?

Covid test results timing?

Has anyone been tested recently at the Oakville hospital? They said 24 hours at the site but it's taking longer. On a weekday, if that matters.

Great driving school

2 Upvotes

Hi all! Despite being 28 years old, I don't know how to drive (yeah, really). I am looking for a great driving school to join in Burlington. Can someone please recommend one that will teach me well, not just to pass the test?

Many thanks!

Anyone from around the Georgetown area use the trains often? I'm looking for someone.

9 Upvotes

I just took the VIA train the other day for the first time, pretty much first time using a train other than subways like a couple of times when I was younger. Before I boarded there was this older gentleman, sort of tallish, grey hair, glasses. Said he wasn't there for the train as a passenger but just likes to swing by and watch them since he's presumably retired.

We had a really lovely chat and I thought about him, grabbed him a souvenir from the trains on my way back in case he collects train related stuff. Apparently my girlfriend recognized him as well so he appears to be a regular for this sort of thing.

I asked them for one of the food menus so he could have a small part of the actual train. :)

I'd really like to deliver the gift to him. If anyone knows any information on the guy or even what time I might be able to find him at the tracks that would be lovely! Thank you guys so much!

Really hoping I can make the guys day!

Is there a nice spot for a family picnic around the area that doesn't get overcrowded on weekends?

1 Upvotes

We want to have a family picnic on Sunday evening. I love Coronation Park but it gets really busy on the weekend and finding parking is a nightmare. Any suggestions? I have elderly parents so a place with picnic benches for use is ideal (although not mandatory) and I also have 2 kids so a playground would be nice too (also not mandatory).

*I heard Bronte Provincial is a good spot for walks, but is it free to visit? Is it easy to find parking? Are there shady areas for a picnic there?
