A special event designed to showcase the town’s many natural and cultural offerings.
Head up to the pavilion at Dennis Hill State Park for a special star-gazing experience. Guided by Aton Forest’s knowledgeable astronomer, Matthew Johnson, under just a sliver of a moon, participants will explore the dark night sky. Telescopes will be at the ready before the sun sets at 8:07.
Cloudy skies cancel…see our Last Minute Updates page if you’re not sure.
The weather forecast looks cloudy with possible storms this evening, so this event is cancelled. Our astronomer says, “This unfortunately is the nature of a hobby subject to the whims of New England weather. One drop of moisture on the objective lens surfaces and eyepieces of my optics is damaging to the expensive anti-reflective coatings.”
