EVENT UPDATE: Unfortunately we have decided to scrub tonight's solar viewing event at Cunningham Falls State Park. Showers and thunderstorms are likely with a chance of precipitation being 70%. We will hopefully see you next month under better conditions.

Event Description: Come explore the nearest star to planet Earth, our Sun! We will view sunspots and prominences while soaking up enough solar radiation to get a tan!

Directions: From US 15 in Thurmont, take MD 77 west for 3 miles. Turn left on to Catoctin Hollow Road and proceed 1.3 miles. Turn right on to William Houck Drive, proceed 0.4 miles. After the entrance station, turn right into the large parking lot. The viewing is at the far side of the parking lot, by the lake.  An entrance fee may apply in season.
