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.
