The window for veiwing the eclipse in our area is from 10:30 to 12:30. We will provide solar-viewing glasses during this time while supplies last. Please remember to only view the ecplise through these glasses. Even a small portion of the sun visible to the eyes can be dangerous, and unlike a total eclipse, there is no point during an annular eclipse when it is safe to view the sun without protection.
