Renewing Your Annual Membership

Everyone’s membership in CAAS ends on New Years Day unless you only recently joined. Click this big button to renew your membership.

Scope Storage

The River Ridge Observatory has some available space in a climate controlled environment for storage. If you want to leave your telescope at the RRO for an extended period this might be for you. If all you want to do is leave your scope over night because it looks like a good weekend, this option is not for you. Your Observatory Level membership will allow that. This option is meant for people who intend to leave their scope at the RRO for an extended period.  Space is limited so check with the equipment manager first.   Cost is $24 per year.

Long Term RV Parking

The River Ridge Observatory has four spots available for long term RV parking. The rates are $240/year or $20/month if you plan to use electricity and $180/year or $15/month if not.  If you are new to this, make sure there is a spot available before proceeding. Otherwise press the button below and choose your annual or monthly option.

Observatory Rental

The River Ridge Observatory has a few observatory buildings for members to use with their own equipment. The rates are $180/year or $15/month . If you are new to this, make sure there is a spot available before proceeding as availability is very limited. Otherwise press the button below and choose your annual or monthly option.

Robotic Scope Internet Fee

This applies to very few members. If you have a permanent setup using a lot of internet data, and you know who you are, then you can help defray the cost of our internet service at $10/month or $120/year.
