Where does a person take their telescope to get repaired?

Meade should have a list of authorized repair centers published on their web site. If not, I would send it to Meade for repairs. However, some telescopes such as Dobsonians in particular can be fixed by the user. You can contact Meade at a href="http://www.meade.com/" rel="nofollow"http://www.meade.com//a to locate a dealer near you and or bring it in for service.
