You’re invited to get a Moon’s Eye View from Downtown Smithville. The Solar Eclipse Downtown Smithville Block Party will be on Monday, August 21st.  Children’s Solar Eclipse Activities led by Helen Sefsik will be from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Justin Potter Library. Then right across from the library starting at 12:30 p.m., come to Evins Park Open-Air Stage where we will be giving away free Solar Eclipse Glasses while they last. First come/First serve.

The City of Smithville will be providing Moon pies and the library along with DeKalb County Government will be providing water. Bring a lawn chair & we’ll set up in the county lot and watch it together! Hope you can come & experience the 2017 Eclipse with us!
