Reservations

Easiest way to plan for and make a reservation!

1. Look at program descriptions.
2. Find a time ,  Use the "Week" view.  Blocks are existing reservations, open times are possible. I need 15 minutes between programs.
3. Complete the Reservation Request Form.
4. An email will confirm that we received the request. 
5. I send a confirmation email with essential planning information once approved. It can take up to 5 business days to process your request!
6. Can't find an open time?  Fill out the request describing what is needed, sometimes I can flex a scheduled block of time to create an opening.
7. You make your own transportation arrangements. NOTE: the planetarium is part of Nature Net and you may qualify for a full or partial reimbursement for your bus costs through the Nature Express program.  Applications for fall term trips have a deadline in September!!  Applications for spring term trips will also have an early deadline... so apply NOW!
