Description

When we look up at a dark night sky, we are essentially seeing the same sky that humans have looked upon for thousands of years. We all have an obligation to help in preserving this valuable natural resource.
 
Join us at Historic Rugby for 45 minute presentation by Park Rangers and Dr. John Averitt about light pollution and what you can do to help prevent it. Due to unfavorable weather conditions for star gazing and telescope viewing, the program will take place in the theater room.

This program is worth 5 GO BIG 2022 Challenge points.
