SUMMARY:SCORCHIN' SQUIRREL TRAIL RUN
DESCRIPTION:The Scorchin’ Squirrel is a trail race through Ferncliff Camp and Conference Center’s 1200 acres located just 10 miles west of Little Rock.  There are 4 distance options: a 10kish (1 loop)\, 11.5 mile (2 loops)\, 15.5 mile (3 loops) or 19.5 mile (4 loops). All distances are approximate.  Each loop passes through 1 full aid station and one water drop.   There will be refreshments at the end with a cook out at the pool.  Please bring stuff to share although Fleet Feet Little Rock and Ferncliff will provide burgers and hot dogs.  We will begin serving food at 10 AM.  No glass containers please.  No pets. \nThis is a great race for heat training and for trying out trail running with the shorter distances.  There is quite a bit of incline (heheh) throughout the course and a few water crossings in wet weather. \nAll the distances end back at the start of the race\, which is at the Ferncliff pool pavilion.  The pool will be open after the race.  It has a large covered pavilion and runners can cool off and enjoy some food and refreshments.  There are lots of changing stalls. \nAny proceeds from the event will support Ferncliff Camp and Conference Center.  If you’d like to reserve lodging the evening before the event call 501-821-3063 to reserve a room or cabin. \nIt takes about 25 volunteers to do this event right.  Would you like to volunteer and have a great time supporting runners?  If so please fill out this very brief volunteer application: https://forms.gle/s2kSoHaT8Ygvm58x8 \nClick Here to view the approximate route:  https://www.plotaroute.com/route/1404552 \nStrava course map for one loop completed:  https://www.strava.com/activities/5680121722?share_sig=6F664A841628868806&utm_medium=social&utm_source=ios_share \nAll distances begin: 7:00 am with a  6:50 am Mandatory Race Briefing

SUMMARY:Summer Milky Way/Perseid Meteor Shower Star Party
DESCRIPTION:Meteor showers get coverage in the popular press\, and astronomy groups invariably get requests from the public about how to view them. But there are challenges. First\, you need a dark\, open sky. That requires at least some travel for most people\, and then you need no moon. Finally\, you need to be prepared to stay up late or get up early\, as most showers don’t really get going until near midnight. But this year the Perseids are on an evening with a first-quarter moon\, which will provide engaging telescopic views before setting just as it gets dark enough to take in the Summer Milky Way\, at its best; together these provide a provocative prelude to the meteor shower. \nSo\, the Central Arkansas Astronomical Society has stepped up to the challenge this year\, hosting a public event at Lake Sylvia\, just 40 minutes out on Highway 10 from Little Rock. To be so close to urbanity\, LS has an amazingly dark sky open over the peninsula in the lake. It also has camping and a few cabins\, a plus for those willing to push observing into the AM hours. \nProgramming will begin in Ogden Hall at 7:30 and cover observing the Summer Milky Way\, as well as the meteor shower. Transitioning to the observing site will occur in time to catch telescopic views of the first-quarter moon\, while Venus will also decorate the celestial stage. As the moon drops\, there will be a constellation tour to welcome the Summer Milky Way onto center stage\, bringing a whole new suite of telescopic and binocular objects to view. \nThe event is worth attending just for the foregoing\, but around eleven\, meteor counts should start to rise as Perseus rises higher in the northeastern sky\, and telescope views will end. Portable chairs\, blankets\, sleeping bags\, and bug spray are recommended. As usual\, no white flashlights\, please. \nHow long have you wanted to experience a meteor shower? See you there.
