The Doncaster Astronomical Society meets on the 2nd and 4th Thursday's of the month at St. George's Church House (directly behind St. George's Church, DN1 1RD ). Meetings start at 7.30 pm. Anyone interested in Astronomy is welcome either as a visitor or as a potential new member. We try and arrange to have a guest speaker every other meeting. A list of meetings is given in the Diary.
A collection of £2.50 is made to defray costs.
