John Goss teaching astronomy and telescope classes this winter at Dabney

John Goss is a Botetourt resident and an astronomer who holds classes at Greenfield Education and Technology Center and at Dabney Lancaster Community College.

John Goss -- a Botetourt resident and amateur astronomer who writes the monthly astronomy column for The Roanoke Times -- sent this in and he will be teaching the following classes through Dabney Lancaster Community College. Although the "Use that 'scope" class is offered at Dabney, it's a one-time class and may attract some from Botetourt.
