Our next joint session with the Chicago Park District will be this Thursday, (10 September 2015), at Jefferson Memorial Park on Chicago's far Northwest side - 
4822 N. Long Ave.

The Chicago Astronomer crew will arrive and share the urban skies at 8:00 pm and attend to our park guests till 10:00 pm.  Saturn will be our selected highlight, but also target other summer favorites of star clusters and binaries.  Look for the Red Telescope lights when arriving and say hi.

Join us in the free star gazing session and check this thread and the Chicago Astronomer social feeds for updates or weather interruptions.

UPDATE:

Sorry kids...

Due to weather conditions we have to cancel tonight's Chicago Astronomer Star Party at Jefferson Memorial Park.

Heavy cloud cover, soaked fields just won't allow urban astronomy for skylovers.

We will reschedule soon.
