Equipment Donated to Dixie High School in 2021

These telescopes were given to the club by people who no longer wanted them. Some said we can do whatever we want with them... use them, loan them out, give them away, whatever. After several years, no member has ever requested to check one out, even though reminded of their availability quite often. So the board has authorized the Equipment Director, Mark, to see if any high school science department would like any of them. Dixie High School took us up on the offer.
