Description

Have you heard there is a total solar eclipse coming on April 8th? We will only see about 30% of the eclipse here in Northern California, but it is still an event not to miss! We will hold an “open house” style event at the observatory, from 10:00am to 12:00pm. Stop by to see a livestream of the full total eclipse in our classroom and engage in some other activities at the observatory. Solar eclipse glasses will be available for purchase. This is a free event, but the Sugarloaf Ridge State Park day use parking fee will be required.
