This two hour event introduces novice and enthusiast stargazers to the wonders of the night sky through the eyes of Backyard Astronomer Gary Boyle. Astronomy is an awe-inspiring and relaxing hobby. How does one begin their adventure under a canopy of stars? We will look at the right equipment to purchase, observing techniques and how to image the wonders of the universe.

For more information about your guide, see Gary Boyle's Bio. 

Notes : Consider bringing your personal telescope, cell phone, tripod and red-light flashlight. We have a limited number of red-light flashlights, telescopes and tripods to share. Check the weather forecast at https://weather.gc.ca/city/pages/on-29_metric_e.html and dress appropriately for outdoor activities. Stargazing is dependent on clear skies, which for obvious reasons we are not able to guarantee. Sessions go ahead rain or shine. In the event of rain, the session will consist of a presentation and Q&A with Caroline. Accommodations must be reserved separately. If you are unable to secure a tent at Four Corners or prefer a more typical motel stay, we recommend reaching out to Algonquin Accommodations at www.algonquinpark.com. Ask about their newly renovated accessible suites.

Prérequis : None. Only register guests 10 years and older. Children under 10 years may join a registered parent at no charge. Please supervisor children at all times.
