Meetings & Committees

General Meetings

Starry Skies North holds general meetings once a month that are open to the public! You do not need to be a member of the organization or have any background knowledge to attend; anyone is welcome to join! In 2024, our general meetings will be held at 7pm Central, the first Monday (N.B. change from 2023!) of the month, unless otherwise specified. (Re-scheduling may happen in the case of holidays or other conflicts.) Please join our mailing list to get the Zoom log on information for the meeting which is sent about a week before the meeting. If you wish to join the general meeting and do not get on the mailing list in time, please send us an email at info@starryskiesnorth.org .

Committees

In 2023, we started several committees to accomplish our goals and foster more action in support of our mission! Committees are a great way to get involved as a volunteer with Starry Skies North. Meeting schedules and operations of the committees are led by their chairs. Additional committees will be formed as needed and when there is volunteer interest!
