Our Star Parties
-
Hurricane Ridge Star Party
- The southern view from Hurricane Ridge
The OAS hosts several star parties every year. During the summer, around the new moon, we have our star party up at Hurricane Ridge in the heart of the Olympic Mountains. This is a one night event in an extremely dark site over looking Mount Olympus and the neighboring mountains. The southern skies are excellent not to mention the awesome beauty of the mountains! This is a free star party, except for the entrance fee to the Olympic National Park.

Rayeann,
In most cases, you would have to contact the maker of the telescope if the repair is extensive, however, you can contact me at webmaster@olympicastronomicalsociety.org with more information about the repair needed and I could let you know if I have any other options!

OAS Webmaster
just a question: Where can one get a telescope repaired?
I want to thank the members of the Olympic Astronomical Society who were observing the 2017 eclipse in Durkee, Oregon. I had the pleasure to share the site with them and they were very welcoming in sharing views with their telescopes and giving great on-the-spot eclipse lessons. Thanks to all of you!!
