Memorial Day Office Closure

Total Solar Eclipse

PSA: Please protect your eyes this Monday, April 8th 2024, while viewing the solar eclipse! Solar retinopathy can cause permanent vision loss. Wear proper eye protection and never look directly at the sun! In Groton, we will have a partial view of the eclipse- the event begins around 2:14pm, peaks around 3:28pm, and ends by 4:38pm.
