Due to uncertain staffing evening programs are tentatively being offered every Saturday night (Friday nights too in June) from Memorial Day to Labor Day. As soon as the availability of staff is certain, weekly schedules will be posted here. Program times vary depending on sunset. Topics are also very diverse and will be posted here as available.
