The Grout Museum of History & Science will be hosting several Star Parties throughout the 2008 season which runs May through September. The events are free and open to the public. Grout Museum staff will be on hand to point out current constellations and telescopes will be available for viewing the night sky. Feel free to bring your own telescope so you can share your knowledge and enthusiasm of Astronomy with others. If you know nothing of Astronomy, bring your curiosity!
Star Parties will not be held if it is cloudy, so please use your best judgment and check the skies before heading to the park.
2008 Star Parties are sponsored by
and co-hosted by the
Black Hawk Astronomy Club.
Maps and directions are available at the Grout Museum of History & Science
