Star Party

Date: Saturday, April 27, 2013

Time: 7:00 pm






We are so excited to announce that Tri-State Astronomers (TSA) will be at ThorpeWood on Saturday evening, April 27 for a Star Party! They will bring their wonderful telescopes and educate all in attendance about the moon, stars and planets!

The community is invited to arrive at 7pm with a picnic dinner and enjoy the property and to learn about the TSA and what they are all about. The darkness will set in by 9pm, at which time the telescopes will be set up and ready to view the beautiful skies over ThorpeWood.

Far from city lights, our skies are dark and full of stars and planets on a clear night. If the weather doesn't cooperate, we'll move into our great barn for some astronomy learning time with the TSA volunteers.

There is no cost associated with this event, but all donations are welcome. Call 301-271-2823 or email info@thorpewood.org for more information and to RSVP.

Please use the directions on our website.
