in a variety of sizes. Draco Productions began making affordable, safe, and superior quality solar filters (endorsed by NASA and the Astronomical League) for naked-eye viewing as well as scope or binocular use with the new Baader solar filter film from the Baader Planetarium in Germany in 1990. Edenton-Wooten has also given many filters to school teachers and students. She believes that making these fine filters, telescopes, and astronomy educational materials available to everyone is her most important contribution to astronomy. For the August 2017 eclipse, Draco and the EAAA provided more than 5000 free safe solar filters to students and the public. The club's gaze director Dewey Barker has added two other monthly events to the new moon gazes at Fort Pickens. The first quarter moon gazes are held at the Pensacola Beach Pavilion, and third quarter moon gazes at Big lagoon State Park, west of Pensacola. In a typical year, thousands of campers, families, students, and foreign tourists attend EAAA beach gazes. In 2010, EAAA sponsor Dr. Wayne Wooten won the Astronomical League Award for his four decades of helping organize astronomy clubs in Florida and Alabama. Associations EAAA joined the Astronomical League in the 1960s and has been a member organization continuously—except when the club was inactive. Former EAAA President Merry Edenton-Wooten was the executive secretary of the Astronomical League from 1986–1992, and won its Wright Service Award from the AL in 1991. Sponsor Wayne Wooten won the Astronomical League Award in 2010 for his work promoting amateur astronomy in the South East. Equipment The EAAA has made several attempts to build an observatory, including mounting a dome on top of an Avion travel trailer. But, light pollution made a permanent site impractical so a telescope has its own trailer and is taken where needed for public viewing. The EAAA maintains a collection of loaner telescopes for member use for $1 per month rental fee. These now include a 16" Dobsonian, a Meade 16" SCT, a C-11. a Meade 10" SCT, an 8" Dobsonian, two 6" Newtonians, 11x80 binocs, and numerous 4" Newtonians. Because of the generosity of members in sharing their instruments and time many people have been able to enjoy astronomy opportunities offered to the general public, scouting groups and schools. In 1982, club president Merry Edenton-Wooten had the idea of using surplus Xerox copier lenses as objectives for beginner scopes. The "copier lens telescope"
