Roxanne Kamin, Astrological Society of Harrisburg (ASH)
As an avid amateur astronomer and fly fishermen, Roxanne Kamin has viewed night skies from both the Northern and Southern hemispheres, including three trips to Australia with the Southwest Research Institute (SwRI)/NASA.
Recently retired from IBM and residing near Hershey, she is active in measuring asteroids with SwRI along with the International Occultation Timing Association (IOTA), and can be found most clear nights observing at Cherry Springs, the Naylor Observatory, Ryan Observatory at Muddy Run or simply from her home.
Earlier this month, we welcomed five new members to our "small but mighty" club. In this issue of The Spokesman, we are pleased to welcome Joan Erney to our group.
Be sure to extend a warm RCWS welcome when you see Joan at a future meeting!
