COUDERSPORT — Cherry Springs State Park will be holding another free night sky tour for the public on Sept. 29.
From 7:30 to 9 p.m. Sept. 29, park staff will present a laser-guided tour of the constellations and talk about the legends and myths that surround these mysterious nighttime patterns. Afterward, park telescopes will be available for an up close look at celestial objects.
