Did you know that James River State Park is a member of the International Dark Sky Association? Learn more about the importance of dark skies while we explore our vast and endless universe with our telescopes. Who knows what we will find. Our astronomy clubs will bring their telescopes and share their knowledge about what you are seeing. If you have a telescope or binoculars, bring them with you, and we will give you some pointers. If it’s cloudy, we will still offer a presentation. Please bring some comfortable chairs.
