CANCELLED - Nightscape Photo Workshop

Workshop cancelled! Please note that because of the historic, long-standing Woodsmens Show taking place at the park the weekend of this program, the presenter and park staff feel that your experience participating in the photo workshop would be less than ideal. The event utilizes the overnight area where this workshop typically takes place. We pride ourselves on high-quality programming, and thus, have decided to cancel the workshop.

Also, if you plan to visit even without the workshop occurring, you are welcome to utilize the free stargazing area on the north side of route 44.
