SWATCA 2025 - South Western Alberta Teachers' Convention

I have worked in the FASD field for 15 years and currently work as the FASD Prevention Conversation Facilittor in the SE of Alberta.  When not working my day job, I spend as much time as possible in Eagle Butte Observatory hunting down faint and distant deep space objects.  As owner/operations manager of the observatory, I host groups and events for up to 20 people in my facility.  I love teaching astronomy and making the wonders of space accessable to everyone.  Recently I have begun to dabble in the demanding and often frustrating world of astrophotography.  It is amazing how much can be seen with today's equipment and there is no limit on how much you want to spend in this hobby.
