Are you looking to buy a new telescope for someone (or yourself) for the holidays? Or maybe you already have one and are looking at getting some help with setting it up and using it, or even the fixing of minor repairs. This telescope clinic is free of charge and no pre registration is required.

The clinic will be held this Saturday November 16 at Valley Park Library, located at 970 Paramount Road in Hamilton, between the hours of 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM.

Everyone is welcome, so we hope to see you there!
