presentation material

[mrgizmo65]

Each meeting , the centerpiece of the meeting is for a presentation on astronomy related subjects. The offer for anyone to make a presentation to the club may be intimidating for some,. What do I want to talk about, what do I do for visual aides? and other things. I have found a site that answers all those questions. The Celestron nexstar rescources site has a down load list of 20 programs completed with information, images, and charts that all you do is download it onto a disk or what ever, study the material and come to the meeting and present your talk. Many of these programs are astronomy related and not just celestron products they are power point programs with images and material that after you study it and present it you will look like a pro. You help the club and guests out and boost your self confidence. One program in particular caught my eye, and that is an outreach for cub and boy scouts, the whole program is there with all the information required for them to qualify for their badge and learn all the material, plus it sets a standard for the club so any club member can present it. It is my hope members will take advantage of this material . It's all there all you have to do is download it. The site is: nexstarsite.com/downloads.htm
