The path of the eclipse totality cuts across the United States from Maine to Texas, and the center of the path goes right through northern Shelby County.
SHELBY COUNTY, Ind. — Now just six months away, central Indiana will go dark for about 4 minutes in the middle of the afternoon on April 8. Visitors will swarm to Indianapolis and surrounding communities in the path of the total solar eclipse.for what is expected to be the biggest event in its history. On a rainy fall day in rural Shelbyville, Tony Armstrong is thinking about the sun next spring.
"We're still working hard to get the word out to the community to make sure that they know that it's going to be a big deal, whether they're interested or not,” said Jeff Kuhn, Shelby County eclipse coordinator. There's going to be people that are coming to town.” At 3:06 p.m. on Monday, April 8, the moon will completely cover the sun for 3 minutes, 59.1 seconds in Shelbyville.
"We're just going to divide off some spots in the 11 acres, and then, they get camping or viewing,” Armstrong said. “We're not going to be high-stressed, and we're going to have fun. You get here and I think you can see that it's more laid back, not corporate. We'll someday sit there and say, 'Hey, remember when we had the eclipse and this and that happened?' But anyway, it’s a way to make a little money.
