Join us on Monday August 5th at 9:30 pm at the Doda's home at 1100 Stone Road for our second monthly guided tours of the summer sky with Donald Cameron, our local astronomy aficionado. We will look at the Moon, Jupiter, Saturn and take a tour of the major stars and major constellations along with a bit of mythology behind the stars and constellations. Attendees are welcome to bring binoculars, blankets/towels and/or lounge chairs for viewing. The Doda's home is about 1mile north of the Old Town Hall, and the driveway entrance is diagonally across the street from Northfield Road intersection. Park at the driveway entrance and hike up, or at the top of the driveway near the house. This is a BYOB event, and we recommend bringing lawn chairs or a blanket, bug spray, and your star gazing curiosity. Cookies and lemonade will be served.

After our local star gazing, we follow it up with a special event on Friday August 9th with start times of 5:30 and 6:30 pm. Titled "What's Up Tonight?" – it's an Indoor Planetarium presented by the Fairbanks Museum.

The travelling planetarium fits up to 30 people plus a Fairbanks Museum science educator for a show that's out of this world! Discover seasonal constellations, fly to and explore visible planets and learn about the latest discoveries from space. Or learn about ancient astronomy sites, Native American star stories and more! All available on their inflatable dome, which will be set up inside the Brookfield Old Town Hall. We'll offer two shows – the 5:30 show is intended for families and kids; the 6:30 show is for adults. Reservations are required because space is limited. RSVP to Shelby at girard745@yahoo.com.
