Dr. Tom Bolton, working at the David Dunlop Observatory in Richmond Hill discovered the first black hole. He demonstrated to the Richmond Hill Council the need to reduce the light effect of our community on the night skies. We now enjoy the ability to view the stars in town. His scientific and community work has changed Richmond Hill to improve the town for star-gazers and night-lovers. Come hear Dr. Bolton speak about our need to continue to reduce light impacts to save the stars in town and the history of the David Dunlap Observatory in the heart of Richmond Hill!

Welcome to the new RHN Web Site

3_trumpeters_small.jpgIt looks as if all our swans are more or less in a row. In other words, the RHN web site is finally up and running with a permanent domain: www.rhnaturalists.ca. In the coming weeks, we’ll be fleshing out missing text, adding an events calendar and fixing what ever needs to be fixed. Comments and suggestions are welcome.
