More Information

This public star gaze event is authorized by the city of Duvall Parks & Recreation Department and is free of charge.  


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.  Feel free to bring your own telescope or binoculars.

The Moon is near its first quarter phase and as such the Cresent Moon follows the setting Sun by less than ninety degrees and pleasantly preceeds fairly dark skies, favorable for stargazing.  Setup starts at 7pm with the field lights scheduled to turn off around 7:30pm.


Check the SAS website < www.seattleastro.org > frequently for star gazing event status.  If weather conditions force cancellation of an event, that news will be posted not later that 3PM the day of the event. 

Visit the SAS website for other Puget Sound star gazing events, and for outreach opportunities, meetings and membership information.
