Kyle City Council has issued a proclamation celebrating the night sky that is also encouraging its citizens to view it.

The proclamation, read by Council Member Robert Rizo during council's Oct. 6 meeting, declares that October will officially be known as Hill Country Night Sky Month in the city of Kyle.

"One of the things I want the children of Kyle to be able to enjoy are the beautiful night skies in the city of Kyle," Rizo said, adding that as child staring at the night sky, he was always filled with a sense of wonder. "I just want the children of today to experience that."
