Incredible host and great time!
Jason_B, Aug 2023
Krista was amazing!! Much to my surprise when we left after the star gazing my 3 teens said they loved it 😳! They raves about the host and said they were so happy they went and that she was a phenomenal teacher and very engaging! My wife and I loved it and had an all around great time with a huge wealth of information about the stars and our galaxy! Highly recommend for kids if all ages and grown ups alike! ❤️

Krista was excellent!! My family all had a wonderful and informative evening looking and learning about the night sky. My 8 year old was engaged and fascinated! Highly recommend this to anyone, another perspective of the park as well.
