Total Solar Eclipse - All 300 Eclipse Shades Distributed

All 300 Eclipse Shades have already been distributed, and there are no more free shades available at the monitor desks. Great job, Sun City, for securing your protective glasses! 

 

Monday, April 8, North America will experience a total solar eclipse. This will be the first occurrence of such an eclipse in the region since 2017. 

 

Event Details:

Date: Monday, April 8, 2024

After this spectacular event, the United States will have to wait until 2044 for the next solar eclipse to grace its skies, as predicted by NASA. 

 

Safety Tips for Eclipse Viewing: 

1. Traffic Expectations: Anticipate significant traffic in Georgetown

and Williamson County on Monday, April 8. Plan your travel accordingly and be prepared for delays.
