Salem Solar Selebration 2017

This will be the first total eclipse of the sun visible on the U.S. mainland since 1979 and the first to sweep across the entire country since 1918.

People within the path of totality (Salem, Oregon!) will witness a total solar eclipse. The moon will cover the sun entirely. The sky will become twilight, the air will cool, the stars will appear, and the black disc of the moon will be surrounded by the pale, streaming halo of the sun’s corona. Totality will last for about two minutes. For some, it will be the spectacle of a lifetime.

Enjoy this rare celestial event on Monday morning, August 21, 2017, from 8:30am – 12:30pm on the grounds of the Chemeketa-Eola Northwest Wine Studies Center, 215 Doaks Ferry Road NW, Salem, Oregon. There will be a buffet breakfast/brunch, live music (Ty Curtis!), wine/beer/mimosas (available for purchase) and a spectacular view of the Willamette Valley and coast range. You'll even get a pair of specially designed eclipse viewing glasses so you don't burn out your eyeballs!

This is a family-friendly event.
