I planned to reemphasize the no pooling.
Thanx for reminding me!

The Perseids will be a good shower to try to spark some interest. You might
consider giving them a list of suitable stars for magnitude estimates and
of
course, the radiant location in relation to nearby stars. I am guessing
these folks are deep-sky types, so they shouldn't have trouble
'star-hopping' to those guideposts. Then it's just a matter of comparing
what they see to those stars. Don't forget...pooling data is a no-no... :>
Good Luck!
