Whiterock Conservancy is having a stargazing hike that is open to the public and free tonight.

Marketing Director Shae Rossetti says the first ever “Wild Whiterock: Night Hike will take place tonight from 9-11pm at the Star Field Campground in Coon Rapids. Rossetti says the hike will be led by the Learning Coordinator Susan Hill and she will take participants on a two mile hike through the Little Dipper Trail. She notes this program is a part of an initiative to get more involved with the community.

“We’re actually focusing more on that guest experience and programs and what we can offer the public just to get people to come out here and get some kind of educational piece and twist on, you know, beyond just regular hiking.”

Rossetti encourages those to register at the link provided and then bring a flashlight or headlamp for visibility on the hike. Participants will meet at the kiosk at the Star Field Campground tonight at 9:30pm.
