Orion Circle

Members of the Orion Circle and Orion Supernova contribute at the $500 or $1,000 level and meet once a year for a special, invitation-only festival in West Texas, hosted by McDonald Observatory Director David L. Lambert.

Please mark your calendars now for the next event, to be held Saturday, April 14, 2012, at McDonald Observatory. For reservations at the Astronomers' Lodge, please call 432-426-3640, ext. 4. You may also make reservation in Fort Davis and the surrounding area. For area lodging, please visit the Fort Davis Chamber of Commerce.

To do the most you can to improve science education nationwide — and to gain access to the most current Observatory news and events — become an Orionid today.
