Telescope in Town

Have you ever seen the moon up close? Join us at the Patten Recreation Area in the baseball field for Telescope in Town night!

Drop by any time from 7:30-9:30 pm on Wednesday, August 26th to view the moon through a telescope, learn more about what the moon is and how it affects us here on earth, and chat about night skies with a Dark Sky Ranger!

If it is rainy or too overcast that evening, we will move the event to the next night - Thursday, August 27th.
