    Join the Miami Memorial Library and Tonto National Monumnet to participate in the Great Ameircan Eclipse on August 21, 2017. During this national event, the shadow of the moon will sweep across the United States in a narrow band from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean in a spectacle that hasn't occured in decades. In fact, the last total solar eclipse for the United States was nearly 40 years ago. The rest of the U.S. and North America will see a partial eclipse, with the Moon covering only part of the Sun.
