Your First Eclipse?

If you’ve never witnessed a total solar eclipse, this is your chance! We’ll have experts on hand to guide you, and special presentations on astronomy and perhaps we will learn a bit on how astronomy influenced ancient folk arts. On eclipse day, we’ll all safely watch this dance of celestial bodies from camp and then have a few more presentations and an ending dance party to celebrate. More info here.
