Beach activities such as games and contests are planned to coincide with the BBQ. Held at the beach behind the Observing Site canopy.

DOOR PRIZES: NSP has traditionally been blessed with many wonderful door prizes donated by many generous vendors. For past NSP’ers, the rules have changed slightly this year. Here’s how it’ll work: On your name tag will be a number. That number will be used in drawing for door prizes. Door prizes must be claimed by the person whose name is drawn or by an immediate family member. Door prizes will be given out at each of the catered meals, the ice cream social, during the barbecue, and after each of the programs on Friday. Winners’ names will be posted on the bulletin boards. Winners must claim their prizes before the final program is concluded. At that time, winners for remaining door prizes and all unclaimed door prizes, and the grand prizes will be drawn. Once your number is drawn, it will not be placed back into the basket until the grand prize drawing.
