Dark Sky

Dark Sky Advocacy

It goes without saying, astronomy thrives under dark skies, and WVAC advocates for dark skies and the reduction of light pollution in our valley.

While WVAC is a club of astronomers, we are also a club of dark sky enthusiast. WVAC holds a subcommittee of DarkSky Advocates that continuously works to partner with organizations and facilitate qualitative and quantitative data the local region. WVAC's mission is to provide the Wenatchee Valley community with quality lighting through environmental, human health, crime and safety, and energy consumption outreach.

If you are joining the club just for Dark Sky advocacy and not astronomy, we welcome you. WV Dark Skies Group holds separate meetings, apart from astronomy so all members achieve their own personal mission, even if astronomy isn't your core passion.
