Each year in Mora there is a cross country ski race called the Vasaloppet and it is occasionally used as an olympic qualifier, so for our small community, it is a very big deal. This year is the 39th anniversary and ECMAC has offered to provide some celestial ambiance for the "friendship tour", a short 2K welcome event at 7:00PM on Friday the 11th of February. We will set up at the downtown library park and hope to show people great views of the first quarter moon and anything else we can pull in with the street lights around us.
Here's hoping we have decent temperatures and clear skies!

I think that the ECMAC could develop a new sport! We have Biathelon (nordic & shooting) why not .........which combos nordic & astronomical observations! This can be done! Jim has the brains and spunk to but it together. I would be glad to help Beta test it!
