(Springfield IL) — Anyone who wants to enjoy today’s solar eclipse in Illinois will not be lacking for events to choose from. In Carbondale, where thousands are expected to gather today, the Southern Illinois University campus is hosting a festival just south of the campus. Officials in Chester, Illinois, are inviting visitors to watch the eclipse from the banks of the Mississippi. The Adler Planetarium in Chicago is holding activities outside the building where visitors can observe the eclipse. And the Ryder Family Farm in Golconda, Illinois, is serving a four-course farm dinner to enjoy while watching the eclipse.
