ECLIPSE EVENT AT HOYLAE BEACH
On Wednesday, 12th August there is a solar eclipse and, weather permitting, we should see a 92% coverage at about 7.10 p.m. Cate Warbrick from St. Luke’s thought “why don’t we get together on the beach with a picnic and invite our friends, family and community to join us? It is a great opportunity to be with others as we, for a moment connect and share together the wonder of God’s world”.
Cate has sourced solar glasses from the company ‘Go Stargazing’ with all profits from these sales going to ‘Astronomers without Borders’. Bring your own picnic and join others from 6 p.m. on the beach near the Hoylake Lifeboat Station
