Meetings

The Oakland Astronomy Club holds regular meetings at 7:30pm on the second Sunday of every month. The meetings are held at the Rochester Environmental Education Center located at 1115 Avon Road (SW corner of Avon and Livernois in Rochester Hills). Check out our directions page for information on how to get there.

Observing Site

The Oakland Astronomy Club operates an observing site at Addison Oaks County Park, which is located on W. Romeo Road (about 5 miles North of Rochester, MI). The site is home to the club's 17.5 inch f/4.5 reflecting telescope. This site is normally open to the public twice a month, when the moon phase is conducive to deep sky observing. If you'd like to use the site or the 17.5" telescope, call the contact person for the scheduled observing night. Check out our directions page for information on how to get there.

Web Site

We maintain our own web site to provide information to club members, the astronomy market on the internet, and to attract new members. It is updated monthly with current information. Stop back often!

Contact the webmaster at OAC Webmaster if you...

  • experience any problems during your visit at our website
  • have any suggestions or comments for improvement
  • would like to add something to the website (...anything...)

For all other reasons contact the appropriate club officer.
