Enjoy an evening along Bays Mountain Reservoir from the comforts of your own canoe/kayak/sup (stand up paddleboard) while viewing the night sky.
It’s an astronomy program with a twist. Join park staff, in the middle of the reservoir, for a guided hike through the night sky. Learn about the constellations and viewable plants with the naked eye.
Park guests are required to bring their own boats/SUP and paddling equipment along with a type III personal floatation device. Guests can unload water crafts near the upper portion of the dam. The cost is $10.00 per person.

Event Details
Taught by Monica Case-Harman (nationally cerfified in yoga therapy for musicians, dancers, and athletes), this class incorporates elements of dance (Latin and some ballet) with exercise-science based yoga. This class will be a full-body workout to include flexion and extension of the spine, upper body, core and legs. As is typical with yoga strength work, eccentric and isometric exercises will be emphasized. The last 15-20 minutes of the session will be restorative in nature and mostly focused on mat work. Concluding with a relaxation period, you will then be able to rest. The cost is $8. Please bring your own mat and water. We look forward to seeing you!
