The City of Effingham’s Tourism Office, Fire Department, and Emergency Management Agency recently partnered with Ameren to purchase solar eclipse glasses to give out for the upcoming solar eclipse on August 21st. Due to the high demand of these glasses, the distribution of them has been postponed until upcoming Effingham events.
To get a pair of the solar eclipse glasses, attend the Our Town: Best of Effingham Downtown Party on August 11th or the City Hall Selfie Day on August 15th. There is a limit of one pair of glasses per person, while supplies last.
