About the Event
At 6pm at the Covington City Hall (16720 SE 271st St, Covington, WA) in the Community Room there will be a introductory class on astronomy led by Steve Case. If you are new to astronomy this is the class you want to go to. He gives an introduction to all things astronomy and telescopes.
The class ends in time for everyone to drive over to the Covington Community Park soccer fields for the stargazing event. Experienced astronomer volunteers from the Seattle Astronomical Society (SAS) bring their telescopes and binoculars to share with the public. Everyone is welcome including families with children.
Note that the park is undergoing renovations but we are in the same location, just using the sidewalk instead of the soccer field. Still access off SE 240th St into the parking lot. See map below.
If weather conditions force cancellation of an event, that news will be posted…
