It’s that time of year to renew your LCA membership! We appreciate your continued participation and support. If you are joining as a new member, welcome to the Leeds Civic Association!
The City of Northampton will collect eclipse viewing glasses through September 15, 2017 for reuse. Drop off locations are at Northampton City Hall, 210 Main Street, and at the Northampton Department of Public Works (DPW), 125 Locust Street.
Pioneer Valley residents are encouraged to bring their usable eclipse viewing glasses to City Hall or to the DPW.
Transfer Station permit holders may also drop them off at the Glendale Road Transfer Station on Wednesdays from 8:00am – Noon and on Saturdays from 7:00am – Noon, or at the Locust Street Transfer Station, Monday through Saturday 7:00am – 4:00pm.
Collected glasses will be donated to Astronomers Without Borders, which will arrange for them to be reused in South America and parts of Asia, both of which are anticipating eclipse events in 2019.
Glasses that are torn, scratched, or are otherwise rendered unusable can be recycled by removing and discarding the dark lenses and recycling the paper- board portion.
