Hi @FirstName ,

Thank you for registering for the @EventName. Below are some event information and reminders.

Please remember:

Please dress warmly for the evening as temperatures can be cold. We recommend wearing warm clothes, gloves, a hat, and bringing hand warmers.
To preserve your night vision, please ensure your phones are turned off. It takes approximately 30 minutes for eyes to fully adapt to the dark after exposure to bright light. Once accustomed, your night vision will be significantly enhanced. Should you choose to bring a flashlight, only red-light flashlights are permissible, as red light does not impair night vision.
This is a free event, but donations are encouraged! We suggest a donation of $5 per adult. All proceeds received from the donations go to support Friends of Alta and our continued work of protecting Alta and Little Cottonwood Canyon. You can donate HERE using the donation button at the bottom of the page. Other donation options, including Venmo, PayPal, Credit Card, Stripe, and Zeffy, more information HERE. We can also accept cash donations night of event. Thank you for your support!
