We're only two short weeks away from the April 8 Total Solar Eclipse in Seneca County! We want to ensure that our community and businesses are prepared for this once in a lifetime opportunity.

Destination Seneca County has been active on social media, trying to promote Seneca County as the place to be for the total solar eclipse experience. We know that people are going to travel to communities in the path of totality, so we want to benefit from them choosing Seneca County! The more businesses, organizations, and people we have posting about the Seneca County Solar Eclipse of the Heart, the more people we can reach. To access the tool kit, click here.

We also would like to communicate to visitors on businesses adjusted hours for that weekend. If you are adjusting your hours, please fill out this survey here and update your Google business profile to reflect the changes.
