2025 Fall Bootleg Star Party

The Bootleg Astronomers are gathering at Green River on Sept 18-21 for a weekend of camping, stargazing, and being with friends. We have a good time, clear or clouds. If clear, this area boasts some of the darkest skies around for northern Illinois.

The camping is primitive as there is no power or shower facilities. Pit toilets and pump water are available. You are on your own for food, so plan accordingly with a cooler and a grill perhaps. Services in nearby towns are easily accessible. We plan to have a door prize drawing unless turnout is low. There are no pre-order t-shirts for the fall event and NO shirts will be available for purchase at the party. You are responsible for your own safety at the campground.

Post if you have more questions and we will respond asap. Registration forms are due Saturday, September 6th! Hope to see everyone there!
