HAL Membership - Join Us!

They say "Membership has privilege" and this couldn't be more true than with a membership to the Howard Astronomical League. Not only do you get the benefits of observing with some of the most knowledgeable amateur and professional astronomers in the Baltimore-Washington corridor, you also get the following benefits:

• Optional membership in the Astronomical League. If selected includes subscription to "The Reflector " - the Astronomical League's quarterly magazine.
• Discounts on "Astronomy ", "Sky and Telescope ", and "Astronomy Technology Today" magazines
  (Members log in on the "Member's Info" page to order or renew subscriptions)
• Hand's On Optics in Damascus, MD offers HAL members 2.5% off telescopes, 7% off accessories, and 10% off house brand items
• Note: membership in the Astronomical League is only required if you wish to participate in any of their Observing Clubs. Otherwise, opting out saves HAL money by not having to cover that membership from your HAL dues.

	Additional Benefits provided by your HAL Membership: Annual Club-based donation to the International Dark Sky Association Annual Club-based support for the Clear Sky Clock Access to club loaner equipment
