Come join us for one of the best nights to see the Milky Way right here in New Kent! 🌌✨

On June 15, there will be no moon in the sky, creating perfect dark-sky conditions for viewing the Milky Way stretching across the southern sky. Bring a chair or blanket, relax under the stars, and enjoy an unforgettable night of stargazing with family and friends.

Don’t miss this incredible opportunity to experience the beauty of the night sky!
