IDA Questions
|
We received a question on the Facebook page about the process of achieving International Dark Sky area status for an area. Are any of you familiar with the requirements and willing to provide guidance to someone? I'm not sure of the process and my plate is full right now. Thanks in advance.

Scroll down past the “Planet Quest” blurb and look for “Suggestions for Establishing a Local Dark Sky Group to Ultimately Earn Certification as an IDA Dark Sky Community.”

I work with the Department Conservation & Recreation. I can ask my contact there if they have some information they can provide. Rob

Thanks Chuck. I passed that link to them and suggested they join this group to ask any questions that come up as they go through the process.

That would be great Rob. I'm sure they would like any information you can provide. This person is referring to the Sandbridge area if that helps.
