Great American Total Solar Eclipse, Aug. 21, 2017
We want to thank all who participated in
the LIVE, INTERACTIVE, EDUCATIONAL
BROADCAST of the GREAT AMERICAN
TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE event on August
21, 2017. Elementary school students in La
Paz and eastern Riverside County along with
our special guest astronomer Nidhi Patel,
volunteers and radio hosts, came together
to share what they were learning about the
Solar Eclipse, ask questions and to witness
this special event.
The Solar Eclipse of August 21, 2017 was
a total eclipse visible within a band across
the entire contiguous United States, pass-
ing from the Pacifi c to the Atlantic coasts.
As a partial solar eclipse, it was visible on
land from Nunavut in northern Canada to as
far south as northern South America, truly
memorable for all that saw it.
We want to thank everyone for supporting
youth education, helping to make this day
memorable for all those that participated
and for your support our youth and the My
La Paz mission to promote health, educa-
tion, community and our goal to "Leave No
Child Without Hope For The Future."
