On April 8, 2024, parts of Maine will experience a total solar eclipse- and this won\u2019t happen for another 20 years<\/span>! <\/span>A total solar eclipse happens when the moon lies exactly between the sun and the Earth, casting its shadow on a small patch of the Earth\u2019s surface.<\/span><\/p>\n

Does the idea of a total solar eclipse light your spark? Are you interested in learning more about it and sharing your excitement with youth? If so, we want you to join us!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When<\/b><\/h3>\n

Thursday, March 7, 2024
\n5:00-8:00 p.m.<\/p>\n

Where<\/b><\/h3>\n

We\u2019ll be at the University of Maine campus in Orono, starting at the Lafayette and Rawcliffe 4-H Science and Engineering Learning Center
\nAddress: 491 College Avenue, Orono, and then heading to the Versant Power Astronomy Center & Jordan Planetarium Address:167 Rangeley Rd., Orono.<\/span><\/p>\n

What do I need to bring?<\/b><\/h3>\n

We want you to bring a friend, a colleague, a neighbor, a parent from your 4-H club\u2026 a SUN-BUDDY! This person doesn\u2019t have to be an enrolled 4-H volunteer, but someone that is excited about the total eclipse and would like to share their enthusiasm and help you do ONE activity with youth prior to, or on April 8th. You could plan to do an activity with your club, at your Extension office, at a library, in a classroom or maybe with a homeschool group- it\u2019s totally up to you!<\/span><\/p>\n

What are we going to do at the Total Eclipse Prep Party?<\/b><\/h3>\n

We will feed you dinner, take you to a show at the University of Maine Jordan Planetarium, do a hands-on activity with you, help you and your \u201csun-buddy\u201d plan your activity and have materials, supplies and resources available for you to take.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why should you participate?<\/b><\/h3>\n

This will be a fun in-person evening with other people who have a common interest, you will get to enjoy dinner on us (pizza and salad), and the opportunity to learn more about the total eclipse! You will also receive free materials to implement activities, solar eclipse viewing glasses, AND a t-shirt!<\/span><\/p>\n

Cost<\/b><\/h3>\n

The event is free, but registration is required and space is limited.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Registration<\/b><\/a><\/h3>\n
