1970's
During this decade, the Astronomy Club organized two expeditions in order to view total solar eclipses.
The first was in 1970 when totality passed along the east coast of the US. Quite a few club members travelled to Charleston, South Carolina for the occasion.
The second eclipse expedition was longer-- this eclipse was visible from Prince Edward Island, Canada!
Also, several new members joined the club-- Howard Snow, Ken Childress, Edward Burke III, David Jacobs, Mike Chesman, George Fleenor, Ron Crockett, Mike Blair, Mike Spicer, Tom Barr, Tom Rutherford, David Cortner, Ted Stryk, Jessee Ray Oliver, and Phil Maiden.
1980's
Although many of the high school age members had departed (most had gone off to college and so on) the club continued to thrive.
In 1989 the club helped, along with King College, to sponsor a talk by Clyde Tombaugh, discoverer of Pluto.
