Star Party

FREE ScieNCe Festival Celebration
Star Party at the Bare Dark Sky Observatory

Free daylight activities begin at 5:30 pm and will feature hands-on astronomy related activities for children. Tours of the observatory and Earth to Sky Park (ESP) will be given.

Hog Hollow Pizza truck will be on site from 5:30-8:00 pm.

At dark, the Blue Ridge Astronomy Club will have telescopes set up near the parking area for visitors to view celestial objects. The Bare Dark Sky Observatory will also open for use of the two telescopes, including the Sam Scope, to view the night sky, or bring your own telescope to set up that evening. Shuttles will be provided to and from the parking area to activities.

This is a drop-in event and reservations are not needed to attend. Each participant will receive an informational packet at the check-in table that includes a viewing schedule for the telescopes for the evening, a glow stick bracelet for safety after dark, a red balloon to cover flashlights or cell phones, and an ESP bumper sticker. New Earth to Sky Park (ESP) t-shirts in adult and youth sizes will also be available for purchase.

A rain date is set for Sunday, April 22 at 5:30 pm. In the event of clouds both evenings, daylight activities only will be held on Saturday the 21.

Kids Yoga (4-12yrs)

After a long day at school, kids need a chance to get physical but also to become calm and centered. This class offers both, with a short beginning centering and then a vigorous flow class. The poses are fun and playful, but the goal is serious. In this age of technology, kids need a way to center themselves, and this class will give them the opportunity to learn how to use yoga on and off the mat.
