Battle Point Astronomical Association
Battle Point Observatory was constructed from the shell of the Helix House, a World War II relic that in 1992 was scheduled for demolition and removal by the Bainbridge Island Parks Department. Thanks to the vision of the founders of the Battle Point Astronomical Association (John H. Rudolph, Edwin Ritchie and Mac Gardiner), that demolition never took place; instead, through private volunteer community efforts an Observatory was created.
