The 89th Annual Meeting of the AAVSO

The 89th Annual Meeting of the AAVSO was a huge success! Thank you to everyone who was able to participate in this enjoyable experience. As always it was an exceptional opportunity to learn from other members/observers, compare notes, and exchange ideas for the future. We hope everyone had a pleasant time and will return for next year's meeting.
