SAS at the Maker Faire

The Syracuse Astronomical Society participated in the Maker Faire this year. A booth was set up inside of the Horticulture building at the New York State Fairgrounds today, and was very successful. People shared their interests for astronomy, with a few looking to become members. A few members attended to help volunteer, including Jeff, John, Tony, Jess and Alex. Although our original plans to set up solar scopes outside was ruined by the quite familiar weather, fun was had by all that attended.
