SUMMARY:Perseids in the Preserves
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever seen a shooting star? Up your odds during the Perseids meteor shower. This is considered one of the brighter meteor showers of the year. Forked Creek Preserve was selected as the location because of lower levels of light pollution. The darker the sky\, the more brilliant the show trust us\, its worth the drive. Join us on the day of the Perseid peak! Pack a chair or blanket and some snacks and head to the preserve at night when the gates are usually locked. Drop in any time between 8 and 11 p.m. for star gazing. Take a break by the fire and roast a marshmallow. If you are interested in viewing the meteors all night\, consider camping at one of the Forest Preserve District of Will Countys campsite locations. Camping is by reservation only\, and fees apply. Make sure to reserve your spot now to view this annual astronomical event. \n
