For optimal viewing of the Perseids Meteor Shower, Sunken Meadow State Park will remain open during the evening of Wednesday, August 12. No charge or permit will be required to visit and witness the spectacular celestial show.
During the peak viewing time - the nighttime hours of Wednesday, August 12th until dawn the next morning - visitors must remain near their vehicle, and are encouraged to dress appropriately, bring bug spray, and a chair that reclines. Binoculars are not necessary.
Sunken Meadow's Field 3 will be the designated area open for viewing.
