Astro Club at Fish Lake

Fish Lake

The club sponsors 3 to 4 field trips to Fish Lake (K.E.E.C., EMU's remote biology reserve near Lapeer, MI) annually.  KEEC is located in an area where skies allow viewing of faint astronomical objects such as clusters, comets, galaxies and more.  Telescopes up to 14" in aperture (or larger), some with computer interface and CCD imagers, are used weather permitting. If you don't own a telescope, several of them will be available to look through. The 240 acre site also allows for wonderful nature hikes, large rocket launches, and recreational activities. Such fun!!  A modest fee covers 2 nights stay, 3 cafeteria-style meals, and activities for most trips.
