| KANE COUNTY ASTRONOMICAL ASSOCIATION | ||||||||||||||||||||
| The Kane County Astronomical Association is an informal organization created to promote astronomical observation. The Kane County Forest Preserve has authorized this group, with limitations, to use two of the Kane County Forest Preserves. SHARE-A-SCOPE is a basic concept of this group whereby anyone interested in star gazing is welcome whether or not they have a telescope. Those members with telescopes are more than happy to share their telescopes and knowledge. In this way all parties truly interested in the hobby can participate. All interested amateur astronomers who enjoy star gazing are welcome. All information and contact is done via email or this web site. No meetings, no newsletters, and no dues are associated with this organization. To be put on our email list, simply send us an email of your interest and email address. Feel free to contact us if you are interested in going out star gazing some evening. |
