<div>I'm signed up for the Mt. Olive event, but if you have enough people for that I could always do this middle school event - I'm flexible, just let me know where you want me/could use me more.</div>

Friday, April 23 to a "read-a-thon sleepover" for about 30 middle<br>school girls, to give a demonstration (which I interpret to mean<br>showing how a telescope works and is used) and let the girls observe<br>whatever might be up at the time.<br>
<br>We currently have the twice postponed (due to weather) Mt. Olive<br>Lutheran School event on that date. We're also likely to get a last<br>minute request from the local Boy Scout council for support at the<br>Sunset Park Camporee<br>
<br>What I'm looking for is two or three of our lady astronomers to<br>handle this event. While I don't think there is any problem with<br>guys being there, I'd like the girls to see that this hobby/career is<br>
as much for them as it is for boys.<br><br>Please let me know if you are interested, as soon as possible. In my<br>response to the teacher, I'm telling her that we have another event<br>already scheduled, but I'm inquiring of my volunteers to see if I can<br>
cover both events. As we are probably an "add on" to the event, if<br>we can't make it, things will be okay, so you can have a week to<br>consider whether you want to attend.<br><br>Thank you, ladies.<br><br>
