Unless you've been living under a rock buried deep underground, you've likely heard about the BIG celestial event happening next week, and the tri-state area is a prime spot to view it.

Most of our stations will be heading to the Downtown Evansville Eclipse Party, hosted by Downtown Evansville. I wanted to stay a little closer to home, so since I live in Warrick County, I thought it would be fun to find a Warrick County event to bring the KISS Cruiser to. I'm going to Warrick 4H Center but all these events look so fun!
