(1) We are expecting a record number of visitors to the region over the weekend leading up to Monday’s Solar Eclipse. To avoid
the traffic and fully experience Eastern Oregon’s slow-paced way of life, consider extending your trip by arriving on Wednesday
or Thursday and departing on Tuesday or later.
School Days.. .School Days..
(2) Many of the best Solar Eclipse viewing areas are in or around small communities with limited gas stations, grocery stores and
other amenities. It’s a good idea to fuel up your vehicle on your way into the region and keep the tank topped off.
(3) Be sure to pack enough water, food, and any medications for all members of your group in case of local supply shortages.
Temperatures in August regularly reach the 100s, so plan to bring a larger supply of water than you think you will need.
The “Early Learning Development Center” will be opening it doors and
welcoming eager pre-school students for the 2017/2018 school year.
(4) Unplug during your visit. While most of our communities do have cell phone service, coverage will be limited in many areas
due to increased demand on our towers. By unplugging for the weekend, you’ll help keep the lines open for those needing
emergency assistance.
Umatilla—Morrow County Head Start, Inc. and Morrow County School
District will provide contact information, registration procedures and
requirements to enroll you child.
(5) Keep in mind you may not be able to rely on e-navigation and roadside assistance will be limited. It’s a good idea to check
your spare tire, share your travel plans with a friend or relative, and carry a first aid kit and a state map.
Columbia River Community Health District will share information in
regarding medical programs available for persons under the age of 18
years of age.
(6) Never look at the sun without eclipse-rated eyewear. While many local businesses will carry eclipse viewing glasses or filters,
it is possible they may sell out before the event. Make sure you’re prepared by purchasing your glasses ahead of time.
The caterer for August’s luncheon will be the Boardman Senior
Citizens Group. They will be treating all of us to a delicious meal of
Chicken Parmigiana, side dish, salad and bread pudding.
(7) August is the height of fire season in Eastern Oregon. To help us prevent wildfires and protect our natural landscapes,
please observe local fire bans:
(1) No campfires and open flames
(2) Use propane BBQs for cooking
(3) Avoid parking in dry grass
(4) Dispose of cigarettes properly
Lunch is $12.00 per person
To ensure adequate seating and lunch, please RSVP by
