              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: C.Gray
Open House was a success! No one was hurt, lost, or maimed. We had a huge turn out and filled all the eyepiece time. Unfortunately, rain popped up sooner than expected and we had to close at 20:00. That meant that while the first two tour groups got some amazing views, they were the only ones to look through the eyepiece. But we gave some great closed dome tours for all the other groups.
Needless to say, the army of volunteers to turn out and make this such a great event are wiped. Engineering was scheduled for B half but, due to the rain and exhaustion, we closed up early. NICFPS fills occurred at midnight. Sorry all, I just couldn't make it all the way to 3am.
Let me just say this loud and clear: NO PROBLEMS TONIGHT! :D
