Here's to a spectacular 3rd Annual Vole Fest! We are extremely grateful for everyone who came out and celebrated with us yesterday, we couldn't do what we do without each of you.

We are also especially grateful to our volunteer Vole scientists, members of the Las Vegas Astronomical Society, FAB volunteer board members, and friends who helped make this event a great success!

From morning field excursions in local marshes with Vole scientists to riveting afternoon talks and exciting activities at the Tecopa community center, ending the day with a Star Party in collaboration with the Las Vegas Astronomical Society, participants had the opportunity to experience the full majesty of the Amargosa and its one of a kind desert communities.

🎉🐭 Our 3rd Annual Vole Fest is HERE!

🐠 See you at the Pupfish Ponds trailhead in Shoshone, CA (next to the pool and campground/RV park) at 10AM to begin the day with scientist-led field excursions.

🥳🎊Followed by Afternoon Festivities at the Tecopa Community center (400 Tecopa Hot Springs rd, Tecopa, CA 92389) from 1-3PM.

🎀🌠Wrapping a bow on a fun-filled day with a Star Party at the Shoshone RV Park & Campground (22 CA-178, Shoshone, CA 92384) from 7:30 - 9:30PM. For the star party, we will meet in the field at the north end of the campground close to the office.

BE PREPARED:

🌡It's likely to be toasty during the afternoon and into the early evening. Bring plenty of water, sunscreen, a hat, and anything else you may need to be comfortable.

🥙🧺 Plan ahead for food - there will be snacks and refreshments available at the Tecopa community center, but it is advised to pack a picnic lunch for after the morning portion, and to plan in advance for dinner - local establishments may have limited capacity during busy spring weekends.

👕🧥 Dress appropriately - Wear light, comfortable clothing for warm weather and to protect from the sun during the day, but be prepared for a significant drop in temperatures after sunset.

🙌🎊Can't wait to see YOU at Vole Fest!
