Bonney Lake Stargazing

This star party offers another opportunity each month to observe under a dark sky. It's open to all SAS members but is specifically designed to orient new members to dark-sky protocol.

The Third Quarter Star Party is for SAS members only and will be on Saturday, March 30, 2019, at 9:00 p.m. if weather permits.
