A folk song passed through generations, “Follow the Drinking Gourd” helped enslaved people escape to
freedom with directions hidden in the lyrics. A ranger program explores the song’s navigational clues followed
by a night sky viewing of some of the darkest skies on the Virginia Peninsula.
Program starts at 6:30pm, informal night sky viewing with members of the Virginia Peninsula Astronomy / Stargazers to follow. You are encouraged to bring your own binoculars, chairs, and red lights for this interactive experience.
