Build Your Own Telescope with Kevin Manning

The Old Lyme-Phoebe Griffin Noyes Library will host a Build Your Own Telescope Workshop on Wednesday, March 9, 2016 from 3:00 to 5:00PM. This event will introduce you to telescope types, function, performance, and accessories that will help you choose a telescope wisely. Then, a detailed description of steps in constructing your own powerful telescope will be enhanced with clear illustrations and numerous photographs taken throughout the entire process A-Z. It’s so easy anyone can build it! Following the presentation, a model telescope just like the one you can build will be set up outdoors for viewing the Moon, the rings of Saturn and other beautiful objects in the night sky, weather permitting. Registration required. Snow date March 10. Please register online at www.oldlyme.lioninc.org under the “Teen Events” tab or call the Library 860-434-1684.
