Welcoming the Dark: Star Party & Night Walks
Saturday, September 19 • Hilltop • 7 pm – 10 pm
Discover the wonders that come alive after dark! Join us for an evening of nighttime exploration in partnership with the Battle Point Astronomical Association on International Observe the Moon Night. Peer through telescopes to explore the night sky, then venture into the forest trails on a guided night walk to listen for nocturnal wildlife and experience the woods in a new way.
Guided Night Walks
Choose between a Dusk Walk (7–8pm) or Night Walk (8:30–9:30pm). Space is limited and advance registration is required.
Star Party
Throughout the evening, the Battle Point Astronomical Association will host a star party with telescopes and opportunities to explore the night sky. Star party attendance is open to everyone, whether or not you join a guided walk. Registration is limited; please select a timed entry: 8pm, 9pm, or 10pm.
You can register for a guided walk, the star party, or both! If you’d like to attend both, please select one guided walk time and one star party entry time at the time of registration.
Registration is limited. Mark your calendars: registration will open on August 21 at 12pm. Check back soon!
