Frosty Drew Observatory and Science Center
Frosty Drew offers to open its observatory on non-public nights for groups of ten or more. An astronomer discusses the available program, giving a group a route to an arranged astronomical outing at a working observatory rather than simply joining a public stargazing queue.
