Perseids in the Preserves: Whalon Lake
Have you ever seen a shooting star? Up your odds during the Perseids meteor shower. This is considered one of the brighter meteor showers of the year. Peak activity will be in the early morning hours of Aug. 12, so join us the night before!
Pack a chair, a blanket and some snacks and head to the preserve at night, when the gates are usually locked. Drop in any time between 8 and 11 p.m. for stargazing. Take a break by the fire and roast a marshmallow.
