A total eclipse of the sun will be visible in much of the River Valley on April 8, 2024. But local cities and towns, and local hopitality businesses in the region need to start preparing now for what’s expected to be a huge influx of tourists determined to witness one of Mother Nature’s most spectacular but rare wonders.
