What we’re about
Welcome to the Stockton Area Atheists and Freethinkers!
We are a group of non-believers that focuses on community involvement, social events, education and information, and activism.
Most of our meetings are held in San Joaquin County, from Lodi to Manteca -- though we occasionally join efforts with our friends in Modesto, Sacramento, and the Bay Area.
We have a number of repeating events, including "Drinking Skeptically", game night, brunch, highway cleanup, colloquium, and more.
The Stockton Area Atheists and Freethinkers has no monthly dues, and no mandatory attendance. We're just looking for like-minded people who believe in good.
Be sure to follow us on Facebook, too.
Sincerely,
David Diskin

Upcoming events (4+)
See all- Star Party (Stockton)Shumway Oak Grove Regional Park, Stockton, CA
🔭 It's a Party of Stars!
Let's hang out with the Stockton Astronomical Society each month during their "Astronomy in the Park" nights at Oak Grove Regional Park (on Eight Mile, just north of Stockton).
No telescope? No problem! Our friends at SAS come equipped and are happy to share their knowledge and equipment.
📅 Dates and Times Vary
Because the moon and stars don't follow our silly human calendar, please note that the day and time of this event changes each month. Be sure to check the event for details and don't assume.
We also suggest you follow SAS via Instagram (@stocktonastrosociety) to be aware of any last-minute cancellations.
📌 Where to Meet
Head to the Poplar Shelter at Oak Grove Regional Park. When you enter, head right and past the Nature Center. If you've reached the boat house, you've gone too far.
🅿️ Parking and Admission
The event is free, but parking is $6 per vehicle. Please bring cash.
