Solar Viewing

Cedar Creek is excited to offer our first ever Solar Viewing Party in partnership with the Minnesota Astronomical Society. The event will occur at Cedar Creek on June 3rd from 1:00 – 3:00 pm. Come to Cedar Creek to learn more about the sun and its importance to plants and life on Planet Earth. After family-friendly activities, experienced Minnesota Astronomical Society Members will use special telescopes and telescope filters for safe solar viewing.*

June’s program will focus on the sun’s solar energy and its impacts on animals and potential uses by humans. Activities are geared toward ages 6+. Registration is required. To register visit Eventbrite

*NOTE: Looking directly at the sun without specialized equipment and filters can cause permanent eye damage.  

Directions to Cedar Creek can be found on website.  Park near the Lindeman Lab Reception Hall.  The telescopes will be set up adjacent to the hall near the field.
