Abstract
GRB030323 is a distant (z =.371) Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) with an optical afterglow. The afterglow was discovered by AAVSO members and was the first afterglow discovered through the AAVSO International High Energy Network. This paper describes the discovery and provides a finding chart and a light curve of the afterglow.
