[Atmob-announce] Participate in a survey about amateur astronomy

[Virginia Renehan]

Hello astronomy enthusiast,
 
Welcome to the Sharing the Universe project.  Through funding from the
National Science Foundation, the Astronomical Society of the Pacific (ASP)
and the Institute for Learning Innovation (ILI) are conducting a national
study to better understand the amateur astronomy community and the
activities and mechanisms that promote astronomy education to the public.
 
We would like to invite all amateur astronomers to share their experiences
and perspectives on club membership, astronomy activities, and engaging the
public in astronomy learning. Your thoughts are very important to us, and we
hope you will take the time to share them through this survey. Also feel
free to pass this on to other people who may be interested in participating.
 
The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. All of your
responses will remain confidential. Please submit the survey by Monday,
October 8, 2007. [Note that you may receive this survey from multiple
sources, such as list-servs, bulletin boards, etc. Please take the survey
only once.] 
 
By completing this survey, you are eligible to enter into a drawing for one
of five $50 gift certificates to Sky and Telescope¹s online store*.
