The New England League Of Amateur Astronomers (N.E.L.A.A.) is a club uniting stargazing hobbyists from the greater Miskatonic river basin. They meet on a monthly basis, organize occasional field trips, issue a newsletter, and raise funds with a Christmas social. Hard times have cut the organization’s membership in half; it now numbers less than twenty-five. Full membership, including newsletter and voting privileges, costs two dollars per year. Auxiliary membership, allowing non-voting participation in meetings and social attendance, costs fifty cents.

Eerie Things Going On

Notable People and Places

Members at the Autumnal Solstice event

Thomas Ongine, the balding organizer of the group drives the bus out of town to remote sites to better see the stars. He is in his 50s, very friendly, and strums traditional Appalachian songs on a battered guitar.

Heidi Pinion, a "retiree" in her late 40s, attends NELAA events (and other social functions in town) more out of curiosity than anything, really. She loves the night sky and loves people-watching. She and Thomas are on the "board" of NELAA, such as it is. She always seems to be smiling, possibly smirking.

Lily Hawthorne is a young woman in her twenties with jet black hair. She seems to have a fan club consisting of the younger men in the group.

Eddie Friedmann is in his 20s, a bit overweight, with curly black hair and glasses. He's a clerk at the First Bank of Arkham.

Troy Lasky is in his mid 20s. He works at Hayne's Hardware. He's built like a runner, clean shaven with tousled blonde hair.

Melisa Cambron is a housewife in her 30s. She is a "writer of small things". She keeps her wavy brown hair tucked nicely under a smart hat.

Jordan Purser is in his late 20s and has short cropped hair with a trimmed beard and moustache. He's an accountant at L. B. Smith & Associates here in Arkham.

Locations

The bus usually leaves from the ESSO station by the Garrison Street Bridge in [Arkham].

The Autumnal Solstice stargazing event took place just over an hour out of Arkham to the Upper Miskatonic Valley.
