I was NOT going to renew this page this year, for oh, so many reasons.... But, since I usually look these up

to get "MY" calendar prepared for the year, at least I can share with people for their calendars.  Even if

you copy/paste the collected info into YOUR publication without credit.....

Let me know if you want your astro-related activity listed.

Clear, dark skies ARE out there --- sometimes, we've just gotta go find them!

Any feedback or updates to the following information will be appreciated.
