Oil Region Astronomical Society - Cherrytree, PA - Astronomical Observatories on Waymarking.com

At present the Society is using a "14 inch Meade SCT" telescope. If you check the groups web page you will see a list of activities and times that they are open to the general public, I am not posting the information here because dates change year to year. The observatory is located on the grounds of "Two Mile run County Park" and there is a nice wooden sign at the road pointing out the driveway to the telescope.

Here is a link to the events on Sept 23-25 2001 (visit link)
