Towpath Radio Eclipse Info and Glasses
Written by Towpath Radio on March 5, 2024
Towpath Radio is proud to be teaming up with American Paper Optics to provide American made Eclipse glasses for the biggest event of our lifetime!
Did you know on April 8, 2024, Northwest Ohio will be right in the middle of the totality area of the 2024 eclipse? It’s expected to bring thousands of people to the area and we’re in the thick of it all!
What is an eclipse? Check out all the details here.
Area officials say to be prepared for a large influx of people as thousands of visitors are expected to travel to Northwestern Ohio. The Wood County Emergency Management Agency says locals should prepare for heavy traffic, busy grocery stores, and extra strain on cell towers.
Though times depend on the town you’re in, expect totality to be anywhere from 3:10 p.m. until 3:15 p.m. in Northwest Ohio, but the partial may begin as soon at 3:00 p.m.

Those viewing the eclipse will need special glasses. Remember, you’re staring at the sun so basic sunglasses will not be sufficient. If you’d like to purchase a pack of glasses that will keep your eyes safe, visit EclipseGlasses.com by clicking here. Each sale will benefit Towpath Radio’s Tower Fund and get us closer to our goal of getting to the F.M. dial!

The dark blue background and black writing is really hard to read Could you lighten up the background ?

We’ve reached out for some help. Try to refresh the page, we had this issue too and a refresh should put the black text on a white background. Hopefully this will be fixed soon!
