VSS officer Meeting

VSS officer Meeting

Section officers enjoyed Guy and Anne Hurst's hospitality at TA Headquarters on 1999 Aug 28th to discuss future plans and projects as the new director takes over the running of the section. Productive ideas were mulled over on various themes including VSS Circulars, Charts, Computer records, Pro-Am work, and so on. Aspects of Visual, PEP, and CCD work were discussed along with a proposed new project for seeking eclipse phenomena in CVs. The date of the meeting was a compromise when the majority could attend; Karen Holland (VSS Circulars Editor) was away on other business, but contributed to the proceedings by proxy.

Anne Hurst took the digital photo of the group in front of Guy's observatory.
