The Great Lakes Star Gaze event is now in its 24th year and the second year being held at the historic Ocqueoc Outdoor Center.  This event is a key fundraiser for the Friends of the Ocqueoc Outdoor Center. Built by the Civilian Conservation Corp in 1933, it is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Join us under the dark skies during the New Moon phase when the skies are the darkest and the viewing opportunities are optimal.  Hosted by the Friends of the Ocqueoc Outdoor Center, individuals and families are encouraged to attend.  There will be a program speaker and guided night viewing making this event educational and memorable. There are very few places where one can view dark skies and enjoy the opportunity to view through the lens of pre-positioned professional telescopes.  

Registration for overnight camping and lodging at the OOC is open now and remember to follow us on Facebook for updates.
