A Note from your Editor

By/par Joanne Rosvick
(Cassiopeia – Spring/printemps 2018)

Hello everyone! I don’t normally include myself in the posts, but I thought I would do so this time. I’d like to thank Bob Abraham for doing such a good job as CASCA president. The times when the President’s Report was late was usually due to the fact that he was busy writing reports for several other organizations in our astronomical community. Thanks Bob! (the posts weren’t THAT late)

I’d also like to welcome Rob Thacker as incoming president, and I look forward to receiving his first report for the Summer Solstice issue of Cassiopeia. Welcome!
