A full view can be seen and downloaded on our Solutions page. High quality tri-folded copies on heavy gloss stock can be obtained directly from Dark Sky Defenders for groups and organizations, along with a brochure display holder if desired, for a minimal cost to cover postage and handling.

"I love our dark skies & look forward to them getting even darker & darker. It's so great to live in a community that values nature & wilderness. Light trespass (pollution) is not one of our community values. Thanks everyone for working together on this to keep central Idaho unique & beautiful!" Tom Pomeroy |
