More information on the eclipse: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/lunar/2026-august-28 \nThis takes place at the Bong State Recreational Area (RBSRA) parking lot F. https://maps.app.goo.gl/QWhf22Tif8eRDojU7 \nA current state park sticker for each vehicle is required and carpooling is encouraged. \n  \n  \nNotes: \nTo enable better viewing of the night sky we ask that all white lights be turned off and any other forms of light including cell phones be kept to a minimum and use dark mode when possible. \nPlease note that this event is outside and weather dependent. Dress for possible cooler temperatures with multiple layers of clothing as temperatures can drop quickly at night. This event may be cancelled because of inclement weather which includes rain\, significant cloud cover\, or extreme temperatures. \nFor more information on the Heide Observatory at Hawthorn Hollow please click on the following link:  https://hawthornhollow.org/observatory/ \n
