- **Event Description**: Have you ever seen a shooting star? Celebrate the land & sky with campfire stories, food, telescopes, and art!About this EventThe Persied meteor shower is an annual celestial event where the Earth moves through the debris field of an ancient comet (Comet 109P/Swift-Tuttle) who last passed through our solar system in 1992. As it gets close to the sun, pieces of itself fall off, leaving behind debris that now bombards our atmosphere every August.There are many ancient cycles that happen on Earth, and in the sky above our heads. Some that are older than the stars themselves.From birds migrating, to fireflies glowing among the trees, and moths that fly towards the moon - these cycles require dark undisturbed skies.On August 15th - we'll celebrate these ancient cycles and the one thing protecting our ability to experience them and revel in our shared cultural heritage - conservation.? The night will begin with guided nature walks,? Later, we'll settle in around the campfire making bannock on a sticklearning the stories of the sky and forest from knowledge keepers who keep these ancient stories alive✨ As the night continues there will be telescopes to explore deep space, crafts, and long exposure light painting so you have pictures to take home with you!?
