Check in advance for event date changes due to viewing conditions based on weather. Star Party and meteor shower observing. Star party 9:30PM with the Perseids, the best warm weather meteor shower of the year, beginning after midnight and peaking in the early morning hours. Local area amateur astronomers will gather at Wood Ridge Farm Brewery in conjunction with the Nelson County Dark Skies initiative to observe and enjoy the night sky as well as a meteor shower. We will have 2 Dobsonian telescopes as well as an EV scope providing a very special opportunity to view the sky with high powered equipment. Be mindful of the night time weather and dress accordingly, bring a blanket and snacks as the brewery will be closed during prime viewing hours. https://www.facebook.com/WoodRidgeFarmBrewery
