The Morongo Basin Conservation Association, MBCA, invites you to their annual meeting from 9 a.m. to noon this Saturday in the Joshua Tree Community Center. A highlight of the meeting will be a special presentation by members of the Morongo Basin Dark Skies Alliance, an alliance of representatives from eleven area groups and agencies focused on promoting energy-saving lighting, and improving the San Bernardino County lighting ordinance. Before the meeting and during a program break, local astronomer, Tom O’Key, will be demonstrating his solar telescope. MBCA directors will share the accomplishments of 2011 and what’s in store for 2012. MBCA is a 501(c)4 non-profit, community-based, all-volunteer organization dedicated to preserving the economic and environmental welfare of the Morongo Basin since 1969.
