Dark-sky telescope night draws neighbors despite parking limits
Summary
A community-organized dark-sky telescope event at Irvington Woods drew around 30 attendees and a wait list; the Woods Committee said parking limits forced an attendance cap and they will explore ways to expand access.
Committee presenters described a recent dark-sky telescope night organized by a community member that drew robust neighborhood interest but had to be capped because of parking constraints. "We had just as many people on the wait list," the Woods Committee member said, describing 5–6 telescopes and families who brought dinner and blankets.
Presenters called the evening a success and said they hope to find ways to expand access next time, noting that parking and site capacity limited the current event's inclusiveness.
