September Member Meeting
Wednesday, September 16th at 7:00 pm CDT - Warner Park Nature Center - Meetings are open to everyone.
This Month: Observing Program Director for the Astronomical League, Cliff Mygatt
One of the benefits of becoming a BSAS member is automatic membership in the Astonomical League.
The Astronomical League is a non-profit federation of over 300 amateur astronomy clubs, promoting observation through award winning programs, education and shared community.
Join us Wednesday 9/16 for an evening with Cligg Mygatt, Observing Program Director for the Astronomical League.
He'll share how the League's observing programs turn casual stargazing into rewarding challenges with personal awards to match, plus an overview of all the Astronomical League has to offer our club members.
Note: At the end of the member meeting, we will hold a short special meeting for the vote on the new 2026 bylaws. You must be present, either in person or online to vote, and you must be a member in good standing (which includes dues paid in full.) If you need to check your dues status, email us at info@bsasnashville.com.

What is a star party?
BSAS members bring and set up telescopes and information at local parks, everyone is invited to come and enjoy the view! Free, open of everyone of any age. These are usually weather permitting, so check back to see if we are still on if it's cloudy or threatening rain.
In honor of the 90th anniversary of BSAS, we partnered with Hatch Show Print to create a unique, limited-run poster! A great gift for anyone interested in astronomy.
