Description

The traditional favorite returns as a Park Ranger discusses the various “incarnations” of the Arch Grounds and the adventures as well as the misadventures of historical figures like Thomas Targee, James Eads, Kenneth Swyers, Percy Green and others. The program will be held on the West Entrance Plaza from 6:30-7:15 pm, unless there is rain.

If skies are reasonably clear, the “Ghosts” talk will be followed by free telescope viewing, also on the Gateway Arch West Entrance Plaza, led by volunteers from the St. Louis Astronomical Society. The moon, Jupiter, and Saturn will be seen. Not sure about the weather? Check the Park Facebook page: GatewayArchNPS.
