Black Hills Astronomical Society
Rapid City, South Dakota, USA
The Black Hills Astronomical Society (BHAS) meets on the
third Monday of every month at 7:00
p.m. (September through May) at the
Journey Museum, 222 New York Street. Our meetings begin with a program to which the public is
invited free of charge. Following the program, we have a business
meeting which is open to all who are interested.
Our "Star Parties" are held on scheduled Friday evenings in the summer
at the Hidden Valley Observatory
starting at dusk unless the sky is cloudy or the moon is too near to
full. There is no charge, but donations are welcome.
