New Members Orientation
- Are you a new member of the Denver Astronomical Society?
- Are you feeling lost and wondering how to begin your journey with DAS?
- Do you want to know more about your membership benefits?
DAS is one of the largest astronomical societies in the country, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed when you first join. This meeting will be the first New Member Orientation of 2025, and we plan to make it a triannual-recurring event for years to come. Member engagement makes DAS the most enjoyable, and we want to welcome you and introduce you to the many opportunities that await you at DAS.
When: Saturday, January 18th, at 7:00 p.m.
Where: Members can get more details at https://members.denverastro.org/event-5981284
