HARDIN PLANETARIUM is one of the most fun FREE things to do in Bowling Green. Bring your family or scout troop here. It's always a thrill for me when they start dimming the lights so that your eyes get used to the darkness. And you MUST go before summer, when they take a break. You can go see "The Planets" 7 p.m. Tuesday or Thursday, and 2 p.m. Sunday until May 10th. Find out more here:

My disclaimer: By no means are these the ONLY events in and around Bowling Green, Kentucky. But they are some of the events that do jump out at me when I read the Daily News or the latest Soky Happenings or look on a website or blog link at the Cheap and Free Stuff in and around Bowling Green, Kentucky blog. Make sure to always double-check on an event before going in case of a misprint or rain date. Enjoy!

Then, on May 13th, the astronomy department will: (from the website)
"focus the telescope on double star systems, clusters of stars, and other deep sky wonders around the constellations Leo and Virgo." This one's a half-hour later, at 8:30.
