Maricopa County Parks and Recreation: Stargazing

Join Ranger Kevin for an evening of fun summer stargazing!  

Clear skies permitting, we’ll be viewing a selection of objects through a portable telescope. Possibilities include planets, galaxies, nebulae, and star clusters! We’ll also identify some major constellations with a laser pointer, and hear stories connected to them. Bring your sky-related questions! Family friendly program. Restrooms are available nearby, but please bring plenty of water. NO pets, please.

MEETING LOCATION: Group Picnic Area

Limit 20 participants. To register, please call the Nature Center at (602) 506-2930 ext. 4 with your name, phone number and number of people attending.
