Special glasses used to safely view the eclipse can be reused! The Ludlow Rotary is collecting them.

The Ludlow Rotary Club (LRC) is collecting the special glasses used to observe the recent solar eclipse to provide children in South America and elsewhere the valuable tool for viewing. In October an annular eclipse will occur in Latin America.

According to Kim Lampert, LRC treasurer, the glasses may be dropped off at three locations in Ludlow:

Benson’s Chevrolet, Inc. 25 Pond Street

M&T Bank, 213 Main Street

Fletcher Memorial Library,
88 Main Street

Donations can also be made at the LRC’s Penny Sale on Saturday, April 27 at the Ludlow Gymnasium starting at 6 p.m. Members of the LRC will collect glasses through April 30.  For more info, call: 802-228-4000.
