Join us on September 28th for the final Star Party of the year at Pipestone National Monument. From 8:30 pm to 10:00 pm, gaze through telescopes with fellow astronomers and learn about the wonders of the cosmos. Photography enthusiasts can also get hands-on experience with astrophotography, guided by photographer Marty DeWitt (just be sure to bring a DSLR or mirrorless camera and a tripod). As always, complimentary star-themed snacks will be available while supplies last! 

Don't forget to layer up for the evening and bring a flashlight to help you navigate the parking lot and median. 

This event is free and open to the public. For more information, please call 507-825-5464 ext. 214 or visit the park website at www.nps.gov/pipe. Event details and program schedules will be posted on the park Facebook page at www.facebook.com/PipestoneNPS.
