The 90th Annual Meeting of the AAVSO

What a great way to wrap up the 90th Anniversary year of the AAVSO! Based on all of the feedback that we have received so far, this meeting was very well received by those who attended. From the scientific activities (such as the very informative CCD workshop led by Arne Henden and Robert Kirshner’s wonderful guest lecture) to the anniversary festivities (including party balloons and a 90th Birthday cake for the AAVSO) this gathering was a success. Attendance was very strong this year with a nice mix of both familiar and new faces. We hope to see you all at the upcoming 91st Spring Meeting to be held in Hawaii.
