Plus Night: “Pi in the Sky”

March 15 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm

As the firepit is under construction for upgrading, there will be no marshmallow roast. The planned theme will be supplanted by the rescheduling of a truncated version of “Wonders of the Spring Sky” (from 7pm to 7:30pm).

Weather permitting, viewing through one or more telescopes will take place. There will also be physical science demonstrations, a marshmallow roast, a sky tour and a game for kids to earn small prizes. During this time the waning gibbous Moon will be at a maximum altitude of 15° in Virgo. Please keep headlights off while parking and leaving. Drive slowly! [For ages six and older. No admission fee.]

NOAA Forecast (Excellent): precipitation potential 0%, sky cover 12%, relative humidity 75%, temperature 21C, wind SW 13 km/h
