Subject: SDAA Town Hall Membership Meeting, Thursday, Feb 19 via Zoom:
Meeting ID: 841 3570 3991
Passcode: 445223
Updates, Open Discussion, and Next Steps
60 minutes. Less “program meeting,” more member input.
Hi everyone — please join us for our SDAA Town Hall on February 19, 2026, at 7:00PM via Zoom.
We’re trying a more interactive format: quick updates first, then member discussion and clear next steps.
We’ll cover:
- Upcoming events, including planning for the March 3, 2026 total lunar eclipse club observing night at TDS (totality is ~3:04–4:03 a.m. Pacific).
- A big club milestone: the first member-submitted project idea was approved + funded — and we want more submissions
- Member-led social events (small, informal meetups that don’t require board approval)
Discussion Topics:
Member Experience
TDS and Observing nights
Training and Mentorship
Communication
Volunteering
Bring one idea you’d like the club to try in 2026 (and ideally, one small way you’d be willing to help — even 30–60 minutes a month makes a difference).
Can’t make it? Reply to any Board member with your top 1–2 thoughts and how you can help, and we’ll include them in the notes.
Your SDAA Board of Directors
Coordinated by: Francisco Contreras & Dave Decker

My name is Benjamin Sanchez, and I am interested in your Association.
I would like to speak to a representative. If possible I would prefer to speak to a person about the association and the programs that are offered.
Sincerely
Benjamin Sanchez
Benjamin,
I don’t represent the club and am not an officer. But I’ve been a member many years and might be able to answer some questions.
