TAAA members are dedicated to sharing the wonders of the night sky
with school and youth groups throughout the school year. These
"Star Parties" give our members a chance to share their knowledge
of astronomy with students and parents alike! There is no charge
for school star parties; this is a service our organization
provides to our community. Due to high demand, we must restrict
this community service to grades 3 (ages 8) and up.

Star Party Request Form and Instructions [DOC]
Upon receipt of your Star Party Request, we will send you a
confirmation that your date has been “locked-in.”
We require a minimum of six weeks
notice for any star party, and book up early in the school year.
Contact us as early as possible!
Preliminary Steps
Some preliminary steps are necessary before submitting your
request for scheduling of your star party. You should obtain
permission by your school administrator before scheduling your
star party event. Also review the star party request form to
insure that you gather the required information before submitting
your request. (Dates can be competitive, and we can not confirm your
date without complete documentation.)
