I participated in a star party sponsored by the Chelmsford Library. There were about 15 ATMoB members, plus a couple of people from Sky and Telescope magazine on hand to show the sky to about 250 people at a soccer field in Chelmsford. Conditions weren't great -- windy and with clouds obscuring the sky from about ten degrees below the ecliptic to the southern horizon. So no chance to show Comet NEAT. But we had Venus, Mars, Saturn and Jupiter, so it wasn't a total loss.
