 Starmaster Telescopes attended the 2006 ICSTARS Star Party in October near Warrensburg, Missouri.
The StarGarden Foundation owns and operates the Douglas Observatory located on the ICSTARS Ranch where the annual star party is held. Dedication ceremonies were held to officially open the new education center next to the observatory. The observatory has a 24 inch Starmaster as the heart of its observing telescopes. StarGarden president, the late Vic Winter, above left, with the help of Shadow Winter unveiled the name of the center to a surprised Rick Singmaster.
