Sights set on observatory
A high desert nonprofit group has big plans to build an observatory on 10 acres of land it owns near the entrance to Joshua Tree National Park.
Now all it needs is money. How much is unclear, but Jerri Hagman, an innkeeper in Twentynine Palms who heads a fundraising campaign called Sky’s the Limit, says she is seeking enough for an amphitheater, observatory and solar-powered projects. She hopes to break ground in six months.
