The eclipse begins at 9pm. In the mean time, we will be showing other fun objects until
the Moon rises.

Since Eclipse lasts longer than we can stay at the park (10pm)
we suggest you watch the rest of the eclipse from home. : )

Join us. RSVp is required. If no public RSVP's, the star party is canceled.
Remember, we are still in Monsoons, so this is WEATHER PERMITTING.
