Stargazing with Kevin Manning
Join Kevin Manning for a special view into our stars and planets. A whole new world comes alive at night and is waiting to be explored. When you head out at night to stargaze, take your family or friends with you, be prepared for a cool night, and let your eyes adjust to the wonder above. Kevin will also bring a laser pointer to help you see things your eyes have never seen before!
This program will be offered both Friday and Saturday night. The program will be hosted at Bear Trap Dunes on Friday, January 24 from 5:00 - 7:00 pm and will be hosted on the beach in downtown Bethany Beach on Saturday, January 25 from 5:00 - 7:00 pm.
