The Perseid meteor shower is one of my favorite times of the year! Perseid peaks mid-August, and with no moon on the 12th, it’s a great time to catch the event. We will gather on August 12 just before sunset to watch the sun go down and the meteors come out.
Please note that the meteor shower becomes more visible as the night gets later. Plan to take a nap before you come if possible and anticipate that this will be a late night (it is perfectly acceptable to doze as needed). We will have picnic style snacks after sunset and play some games until it grows dark enough to see things. Bring blankets to make yourself cozy and snacks/drinks as desired.
The location for this is private, so we ask that folks carpool as much as necessary. Carpoolers can plan to meet at 7:30 off Fontaine Ave. Details for both locations will be sent on Friday. As always, please RSVP so we have an accurate headcount.
Raindate August 13!
