Everything 2017 exists to deal with Monday August 21, 2017. Everything else is the shit I need to do to make that event a success. We've already sold out a resort in the eclipse path. We've set up solar viewing training for multiple groups. Looks like we are going to get a government grant, maybe two.

The hope is that I can use this eclipse to double the size of the club, build more people doing outreach and work harder on making my little corner of the universe suck less.

If I make it to the eclipse, get clear skies, and live to talk about it, 2017 will be a success.
