Star Party

November 30, 2019, 5:30 PM - 8:30 PM @ Crescent Bend Nature Park

Mark your calendars for our next Star Party on Saturday, November 30 at 5:30 p.m. at Crescent Bend Nature Park. This is the weekend after Thanksgiving, and we encourage everyone to #OptOutside as an alternative to the traditional shopping frenzy! Star Party Etiquette: Dim your vehicle lights when entering the park. Bring a flashlight with a red infrared “night-vision” setting or make your own by covering a regular flashlight with red cellophane and a rubber band. Dress for the weather and bring water and a camp chair if you’d like. Don’t touch any equipment without asking the astronomer first. Avoid loud and boisterous activity; the stars in the sky are the show for the night.
