The 90th Spring Meeting of the AAVSO

Hosted by members of the local Milwaukee Astronomical Society, the 90th Spring Meeting of the AAVSO was undeniably a great success. Many thanks to all who were involved in putting together this unique and interesting event. A good time was had by all at the MAS Observatory and the cookout at Yerkes Observatory. The Eclipsing Binary workshop, led by Dirk Terrell, was very well received. It was also a joy to see so many new faces! We hope to see many of you in attendance at the upcoming 90th Annual Meeting in Somerville, MA.
