What To Bring: Bring any astronomy equipment or literature you want to share or need help with. Any ATMing supplies you might use. The workshop has also turned into a casual potluck (optional!) so if you would like to bring a food or drink item to share it will likely be eagerly consumed by the crowd, and you will be a hero.
