We are sorry to advise you that due to extreme cloudy conditions we must postpone the stargazing event originally scheduled for tonight Friday November 18th. We will attempt to reschedule at a later date - weather permitting. 

 

October 31, 2011 (La Mesa) -- La  Mesa’s November free family fun events begin November 5 with a tennis play day featuring an introduction to the new 10-and-under tennis program and concludes with a stargazing program on November 18.

The whole family is invited to bring racquets and participate in tennis games, and get information on upcoming instructional sessions for the age 10-and-under tennis program through the United States Tennis Association.

Play day is Saturday, November 5 from 1:00 to 3:00 pm at the La Mesita Park Tennis Courts, 8855 Dallas Street, La Mesa. The city of La Mesa recently unveiled the newly refurbished tennis courts at La Mesita Park made possible through USTA’s “fresh courts” program funded by American Express.

On Friday, November 18,  you can unleash your inner astronomer at a free stargazing event from 7:00 to 9:00 pm in the parking lot of the La Mesa Community Center, 4975 Memorial Drive, La Mesa. Members of the San Diego Astronomy Association will have their telescopes trained on celestial points of interest in the November skies over La Mesa and can answer your astronomy questions.

The community center will also offer a warm and cozy indoor spot with astronomy-related displays for those interested in more information about stargazing. In the event of inclement weather this event may need to be postponed.
