              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: T.Rudyk
Evening started partly cloudy. Clouds eventually thinned out but did not go away entirely. Nonethless we were able to open right away and stayed open all night.  Seeing was so-so, then good, then so-so again.
Students on CU01:
J.Belter,S.Stasiorowski,R.James
