I’ve just been invited to participate (again) in the annual Stirling Street Fair. I normally do this solo, setting up solar telescopes and what not. There are generally a lot of people who come out, and the day is a lot of fun. The latest Covid resurgence is scary, but I’ve said that I’ll participate if the weather and health restrictions cooperate.

I’m inviting any other AAAP members who wish to participate to join me in this outreach opportunity. There’s also an opportunity to turn this into an “AAAP sanctioned event” where we pass out literature and promote the club.

The street fair is within walking distance of my house, but a bit of a drive from the Princeton area. It will take place (hopefully) Sunday, Sept. 5. Please contact me at program@princetonastronomy.org if you’d like to participate.

From the Long Hill Chamber of Commerce:

• The Long Hill Chamber of Commerce will sponsor its 20th Annual Street Fair on Sunday, September 5 from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM on Main Avenue in Stirling.

• The Street Fair will feature shopping, food, all-day entertainment, kids’ rides, local vendors and organizations and a chance to see fire and first aid equipment up-close.

• Main Avenue residents should move their cars to a side street before 7:00AM.  Churchgoers should allow extra time for detours around downtown Stirling.

• Long Hill merchants who want to participate should visit www.jcpromotions.info and and click on the “Vendor Registration” button.
