Starry Nights | Rancho Canada del Oro Open Space Preserve
February 11, 2023 @ 6:30 pm – 8:30 pm
Enjoy a family-friendly starry night stargazing event at Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve!
The Open Space Authority is pleased to work with the SJAA to co-host a community star party at Rancho Cañada del Oro Open Space Preserve.
This is a family-friendly event! Although younger children are welcome, this activity is best suited for children 5 years and older.
This preserve features night skies so dark you can see the band of our Milky Way galaxy in the summer! Telescopes will be provided along with docent astronomers to help you find amazing features in the night sky.
Please do not bring your own telescope (binoculars are welcome, but please no tripods).
SJAA official club members will set up their telescopes to help you get the most knowledge and enjoyment out of the truly dark starry night sky. No flash photography or imaging at this event.
Arrive no later than 6:45 p.m., as the gates will be closed then to allow for a better viewing experience for everyone involved. If possible, turn OFF your headlights to enter the parking area.
Please double-check the event information on the event website as sometimes events are canceled or details changed after they are added to CelebrateFamily.us. Let us know about any changes at events@celebrate-family.com
