Enjoy the view from the top of Chickatawbut Hill while we toast marshmallows around the campfire and enjoy some celestial stories.

As darkness descends, we’ll spread out our blankets and star gaze.

If we’re lucky, we may see some early falling stars from the Perseid meteor showers.

Please bring bug spray, a blanket and a jacket or sweater.
