 Paddling the Darkest Skies
Bear - upstairs Sat 9:30am-10:15am 
It is as ancient as humans in the wilderness, looking up at the boundless infinity of the stars. But, it is also an endangered resource. The Apostle Islands National Lakeshore has some of the darkest skies in the upper Midwest. In this star-filled presentation, Jeff Rennicke, Executive Director of Friends of the Apostle Islands, shares stories of being on Lake Superior under the stars, beneath the northern lights, and the organization’s efforts to preserve the experience for others. From practical tips on how to travel safely beneath the stars, to the art, hope, and joy of truly dark skies, join us beneath the stars in the Apostle Islands.
