GOSHEN COUNTY – Following suit with the upcoming total solar eclipse, a new booth at the Goshen County Fair falls perfectly in line with the event’s theme: “To The Moon And Back”.
Solar Eclipse Sunglasses, based out of Cheyenne, will host a booth in the Ag Hall beginning Fair Day, Thursday, July 27 and running through Saturday. As a show of community support, owner Butch “George” Marlin plans to donate 10 percent of all glasses sales during the fair to Diversified Services, Inc. (DSI)
“It’s just the right thing to do,” Marlin said. The business has already presented 100 pairs of glasses to DSI participants and staff.
“Our glasses … have the ISO certification,” Marlin said. “Only five other (companies) have that designation. With the designation right in our company’s name, it gives people peace of mind that our glasses are safe for solar viewing.”
According to NASA (nasa.gov), eclipse-viewing glasses should meet the following
criteria:
• Have certification information with a designated ISO 12312-2 international standard.
