Calling all Kayakers and explorers of the universe!

Who- Kayakers, we invite you to join Paradise Recreation and Park District for a evening on Paradise Lake.

June 15th: 6:00pm - 10:30 pm

July 13th: 6:00pm - 10:30pm

Why- The ambient light polution at Paradise Lake is nearly non-existent after the sun goes down, which is a site to see in itself! Paradise Lake is beautiful at dusk and continues to treat participants to an amazing view of the stars - so we combined the two - kayaking followed by stargazing.

How- Grab or rent(an option for renting a kayak will be prsented during registration) a kayak then head to Paradise Lake, boat launch #2. You can register by clicking this link, it is live! This event is $25 per person.

Want to skip the kayaking and head straight to the Astronomy? Totally cool - we offer a la carte registrations for the astronomy portion at this link, once it is live.
