Hello Everyone,

Wally Dorman – Founder of the Wally D Sports Foundation is our speaker tomorrow. The Foundation has added a golf tournament in addition to their scholarship banquet. The Banquet showcases San Juan County’s top individual prep athletes by offering several thousands of dollars in scholarship money to seniors who will be advancing their academic and athletic careers.

We were excited and intrigued by the presentation at our 5/28 meeting by David Mayeux, Planetarium Director at San Juan College. He gave an update on the Artemis II program.

He showed us spectacular pictures of the anti-side of the moon taken by the crew of the mission. In addition he showed photos of a solar eclipse taken as the space capsule passed behind the moon.
