Meteor Watch at Wolcott Mill

Head to Wolcott Mill Historic Center for some stargazing fun. The Perseid Meteor Shower occurs at this time of year and viewers can see metor showers, from ten to thousands in an hour. Sit by a bonfire, make a craft, listen to meteor and star facts and trivia and enjoy a constellation walk. In case of inclement weather, inside activities will occur. Fee: $5 per adult, $2 per child. Preregistration and prepayment required.

A vehicle entry permit is required to enter any Metropark and is only $25 annually for regular admission, $15 annually for seniors or $5 daily. General information can be found at www.metroparks.com or by calling 1-800-47-PARKS.
