What does membership bring?

Seasoned members can help you learn about your own astronomy equipment, or guide you on selecting new equipment, and how to explore the night skies. As a member you will have the opportunity to be trained on club equipment. And as a member, you automatically will have access to the member discussion groups on the DMAS website. Our members come from a wide range of backgrounds, and new members are always welcome.
Participate in DMAS Yahoo Group sharing
As a member, you will have access to the array of functions that our Yahoo Group provides. Currently this provides a way for members to send email to the whole group, including attachments of photos and other files. There is also an archive of club-related files, such as the monthly newsletters, and instructions about equipment and facilities, for example. Members can post into their personal photo gallery there, and view other members' galleries.
