CANCELED: Star Party

This event has been canceled. The Northern Nevada Astronomy Group will have various sizes of telescopes available for viewing stars, planets, and other wonders of the night sky. They will do a short slide presentation as it is getting dark enough for the telescopes. Participants should bring a jacket, red light if possible (red light does not negatively affect night vision), and a lawn chair.
