_
When Bob Eskridge became president in 1992 the club staged the first installment of  its annual Regional Meeting of Amateur Astronomers, affectionately known as "BoBFest" the following year. Since then, The CCAS has continued to be an active organization in amateur astronomy in the region, with Steve Davis, then Roger Ivester succeeding BoB as president.   Don Brooks was President of the club for over 7 years and shaped this event into what it is today.   The current president is David Herndon.


The Club’s members participate in a wide range of programs oriented toward the amateur astronomer and the general public including telescope demonstrations, video and slide presentations, and other educational programs. This regional meeting is known as “BoBfest” for Carolina's Astronomy Ambassador, BoB Eskridge.
