Join us for a Skywatch at Benedictine Park.  Members of the New Hampshire Astronomical Society will set up telescopes for night sky viewing and will help you view interesting celestial objects.

To make the skywatch enjoyable for everyone:

• Please try to arrive and be parked by 7 pm. This is because car headlights shining on the observing field disturbs the viewing and ruins people's night vision.

• If you are bringing small children, please don't dress them in shoes and sneakers that have LED lights on them.

• Please put your cell phones away and do not use flashlights.

• The astronomers will have dim red lights that will not ruin night vision but are bright enough to keep the observing field safe.
