Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Sun, Moon, and Stars – Twilight Stroll and Constellation Stories

June 16, 2024 @ 7:00 pm - June 17, 2024 @ 9:00 pm

Free with Park Fee
Join us on a celestial journey with our brand-new program at the park with Ranger Jacque, featuring a tranquil hike, telescope moon viewing, and stories of the night sky.  

Discover the magic of the celestial realm on this combination program, starting with a leisurely one-mile walk, immersing you in the natural beauty as the sun sets. As night falls, gather round our telescope for an up-close look at the enchanting moon. Bring along a blanket and/or picnic to comfortably nestle under the night sky. Range Jacque will use a laser pointer to reveal constellations and their long-held mysteries. It’s a perfect opportunity to unwind, connect with nature, and marvel at the wonders of the cosmos!

MEETING LOCATION: Merkle Trailhead, Area 6
