Bonus Episode - Dark Skies at Beaver Creek Conservation Area

Hello and welcome to a special bonus episode of YXE Underground. I’m Eric Anderson, and if you are listener of the podcast, you probably know I am a big fan of the Meewasin Valley Authority . The organization does an incredible job of protecting and enhancing our beautiful river valley, and its conversation efforts are always worth celebrating. Meewasin also puts on really great events , and in this episode, we are highlighting one that takes place at Beaver Creek Conservation Area . Dark Skies at Beaver Creek gives people the chance to explore the wonders of the night sky along with learning how to photograph constellations, galaxies and if you’re lucky, like I was in this episode, the Northern Lights. These Dark Skies events sell out quickly. I know this because I’ve been trying for a few years to get a ticket. It finally happened in late August on a beautiful and clear Friday night. I wanted to do a bonus episode to share with you the joy and wonder of a Dark Skies event, and I hope that comes through in what you are about to hear. The next Dark Skies event at Beaver Creek will take place on Saturday, November 1st, starting at 7:30pm. A big thank you to the Meewasin team, especially the great Sam Cowan, for making this episode possible. I also want to thank Tim Yaworski, also known as the Living Sky Guy, for sharing his knowledge of the sky and photography with all of us at the event. Be sure to check out Tim's YouTube page to learn more about the stars and how to capture them on your camera. Enjoy the Night Sky, Saskatoon!
