What is this Event?
The Boise Astronomical Society has been hosting the Idaho Star Party for 37 years, to provide the public and its club members with a two day cosmic experience. In addition, participants are challenged with a deep sky scavenger hunt. Within the weekend you will have to find that years given number of objects and document them. Each year we invite a guest speaker to join us and speak on a topic of their field. With the previous partnership with Bruneau Dunes State Park we will be holding the Idaho Star Party in the Eagle Cove Campground again this year. Contact Jeff Creed, our ISP Coordinator, about available campsites and any question you may have.
