FLORIDA CALENDAR OF ASTRONOMY-RELATED EVENTS
2021
Due to the pandemic most public in-person outreach activities were cancelled since Spring 2020. Some Astronomy clubs in Florida are conducting their monthly meetings via web conferencing apps until the pandemic ends. You may want to visit the Astronomy Clubs Page and click on your local club to see what's happening this month. Although this terrible time period appears to be coming to a close, the Summer clouds (every year) cause some Astronomy clubs to take the Summer off from their monthly meetings and New Moon viewing events. I don't anticipate many events to arise in Florida until this Fall 2021, but if I do hear of anything (considering the possible pent-up demand?) I'll list them here. Also, please let me know of any Astronomy-related events you may hear about too by e-mailing reachjasonh@ and then add gmail.com to the end of that, that way we all can benefit, either by attending, and perhaps some of us can even help at the event?
