We would like to thank the vendors and many others who provided donations to the star party that really made this year such a success. Without them, we would never be able to put on such a great event.

•

First, we must remember the many people who volunteer their time before, during and after the star party. Without them, this weekend could not happen.

•

Dairy Queen of Frankfort - They provided the Dilly Bars for the Sky Trekker program.

•

Deer Creek Golf - Provided golf carts for us to use to get around and get things done.

•

MCF Hardware - They provided a generous donation towards all of the new signage that we have to get every year.

•

Orion - They came through with a great selection of door prizes.

•

OPT Corp (Oceanside Photo and Telescope) provided more great door prizes.

•

JMI telescope for more door prizes.

•

Sky Publishing for more door prizes.

•

Kurblach Publishing for more door prizes.

•

Marilyn Sameh for more door prizes.

•

Explore Scientific for more door prizes.

•

Tele Vue for more door prizes.

•

Mike Abell for more door prizes.

•

Wood Wonders (Ron Burrows) for more door prizes.

•

Ed Jarrett for more door prizes.

•

George Wyncott for more door prizes.

Yes, you read that list correctly, we had a lot of sponsers provide a great selection of door prizes this year that really helped. We really do use this event as a fund raiser to help keep the observatory running and this great selection really helped people find items of interest and therefore money for the observatory.

I'll also say again that without the support of the others, we would have had to spend some of that money on items to put on the event and therefore their contribution cannot be understated.

Thank you ALL!
