SUMMARY:Owl Prowl (adult program)
DESCRIPTION:SOLD OUT…. Thank you! \nOwl Prowl Night Hike will start at 6:30 pm with a short indoor presentation to learn about the owl species that reside in Michigan\, their adaptations\, and then we’ll take a night hike on Dahlem’s quiet trails listening for owls and other night creatures.  We will use an artificial device to call out to owls with anticipation that they answer back.  In past\, the Great Horned\, Barred and Screech owls have replied.  This is a fun night not to be missed.  Make it a ‘date night’ without kids. \nFee: $8/per Dahlem member; $10/per non-member. Advanced registration is required. Complete the registration form below or call the office at 517-782-3453 ext. 0 to sign up and pay for your spot. Registration deadline is Tuesday\, January  17th at 5:00 pm.  We have a 24 hour cancellation policy. If you don’t call to cancel and don’t show\, you will be charged the full amount. \nBring a small flashlight to carry in your coat pocket.  Our goal is to use our night vision just as our nocturnal creatures do to venture through night and let our other senses direct us on the trails. \nThe Dahlem Conservancy\, 7117 S. Jackson Rd.\, Jackson 49201 is just 15 minutes from downtown Jackson.

Telescope observing is dependent on clear skies and weather permitting. \nTickets are nonrefundable. In the event of a rain day\, tickets will be applied to a rescheduled date. Recommended for ages 16+. \nPlease note\, outdoor capacity is limited as we will be practicing social distancing on the trails.

There will also be hands-free telescope observing and sanitization products will be present. \nThank you for your support of two local non-profits during this difficult time. Proceeds from this program benefit both the Dahlem Center and Ella Sharp Museum.

SUMMARY:Explore the Night: Night Hike & Guided Telescope Observing
DESCRIPTION:Join Ella Sharp Museum and the Dahlem Center for a wonderful night under the stars! \nLet’s explore and use our night senses! The goal for our night walk\, led by Dahlem Naturalist Educator Carrie Benham\, is to help people enjoy being outdoors after dark\, help them feel safe\, and share information about nocturnal animals\, the senses they use at night\, and how we can better develop our own senses and awareness of the dark. Afterwards\, Ella Sharp Museum will be providing hands-free guided telescope observing with Planetarium Operator\, Austin Edmister. We will be observing to view the planets and many other celestial wonders\, and watching the stars come out. Telescope observing is dependent on clear skies and weather permitting. Tickets are nonrefundable. In the event of a rain day\, tickets will be applied to a rescheduled date. \nPlease note\, outdoor capacity is limited as we will be practicing social distancing on the trails. Attendees will be required to fill out a health screening survey\, have their temperature checked\, and must wear a mask. There will also be hands-free telescope observing and sanitization products will be present. \nProceeds from this program benefit both the Dahlem Center and Ella Sharp Museum. \n\n\n\n\nPrice: $10/person\, per program.  Register online at Ella Sharp Museum \nDates:\nAugust 20 @ 8:00 pm … SOLD OUT\nSeptember 17 @ 7:30 pm … SOLD OUT\nOctober 15 @ 7:00 pm  … just a few tickets available\nNovember 19 @ 6:00 pm \nEvent Location: The Dahlem Center\n7117 South Jackson Road\nJackson\, MI 49201
