Thunder, lightning and power outages were not enough to stop Cub Scout Pack 25 from enjoying an astronomy based evening at the Spanish Trails Scout Reservation. Granted, the overcast and precipitation prevented telescopic views, but the NWFAA was prepared for just that situation and was able to provide an alternative. Club members Tom Haugh and Frank Atchison gave a general astronomy based presentation to the 35 scouts and scout leaders, as well as the few family members who braved the weather. Luckily, the power stayed on throughout the presentation as well as the following question and answer session. Hopefully, our next trip to the Spanish Trails Scout Reservation will have clear skies.
