Save the Date: Star Party - Friday January 15th 6:30 – 8:00 pm  

Jim Sowell from the Georgia Tech Astronomy Club will be bringing his telescopes and will be showing us the stars and planets. This will be a Tritt community event, focusing on 2nd and 4th grade standards. All grade levels and family members of all ages are invited.  All attendees will receive a homework pass. Our Relay for Life team members will be on hand selling hot chocolate and goodies.

What do you need to bring?

  • Dress for the weather. It could, and probably will be, a bit chilly.
  • Also, and this is completely optional, you can download the Star Walk app on your smart phone and/or tablet. This is a fantastic app that will allow the students to look up and understand what they are looking at as the instructors talk about the many points of light in the sky.
  • Optional: BYOT! Bring our own telescope.
