About the Event
Do you love the stars or want to learn how to identify different constellations in our night sky? Come join us at the Starfield campground and spend a night under the stars! Our starfield has the darkest skies in Iowa, so it’s the perfect place to do some stargazing! From 8-11 pm, we will be looking up at the stars and using a telescope to identify different constellations, planets and stars. Please download the app SkyView Lite (Free) or pay $2.99 to download the full version before coming to the event. We will provide three telescopes to share with the groups, but if you have your own, you are encouraged to bring it. Please meet at the Starfield parking lot (1523 140th St Coon Rapids, IA 50058 ). Email Emily Rossiter at learn@whiterockconservancy.org with any questions.
