Event Description
What better way to celebrate International Dark Sky Week than "shooting stars" through the Natural Bridge?
Bring a full camera or cell phone and take a night-time photography workshop on Cedar Creek. Once you master the basics everyone will practice taking photos of the stars on either side of the Natural Bridge.
Pre-registration is required and space is limited. To register, call (540) 254-0795. Prepayment is taken at time of registration by credit card over the phone, and you will be emailed a receipt.
The program fee is $7 for adults (13+), $4 for children (12 and younger). Meet at the park visitor center for an introduction then a shuttle ride to Cedar Creek. Due to demand we cannot sell admission at the door.
Parks are for everyone - the trail is flat and accessible, but please let us know when registering if you have any concerns about attending.
