Both Lampasas County and the City of Lampasas have passed resolutions to encourage practices and support efforts to preserve our night skies.

We enjoyed participating in the Harker Heights Outdoor and Science Expo last weekend. Met lots of nice folks in Bell County, many are interesting in forming their own Friends Group to protect their night skies.
We shared our process and enthusiasm!
