The event, for those 21 and over, offers an entertaining evening of listening to the music of Ben Arnold, observing the heavens, and enjoying libations amid an inspiring landscapes. Expert astronomers will train telescopes on faraway stars, inviting all to take a peek. Victory Brewing Company will provide its craft beer, including a signature brew created for the event, and wines will be offered by Borderland Vineyard.
In addition, sweet and savory snacks will be served, and marshmallows will be toasted over crackling fires. Guests should bring lawn chairs or blankets and wear sturdy shoes as the ground is uneven. Dogs and coolers are not permitted.
