North Country Chamber of Commerce: Reflecting on the Adirondack Coast’s Spectacular Total Solar Eclipse

Yesterday, the Adirondack Coast/North Country experienced an extraordinary event – a total solar eclipse. This cosmic phenomenon drew an estimated 200,000 visitors to our region, with approximately half a million exploring the Adirondacks. As the moon crossed the sun’s path, our communities came together to extend a warm welcome to guests from near and far, embodying the hospitality of the Adirondack Coast region.

We extend our sincere thanks to all the businesses, community members, and municipalities who contributed to the success of this event. Your efforts helped create an inviting atmosphere for our visitors, leaving a positive impression of our region.

Reports indicate that Clinton County welcomed visitors from all 50 states, 4 Canadian provinces, and several international countries, showcasing the widespread appeal of our area and this celestial event.

Local businesses experienced increased activity, with many hosting special events and seeing very high attendance. From viewing parties to unique menu offerings, entrepreneurs embraced the opportunity to showcase their creativity and hospitality, contributing to the overall enjoyment of the eclipse experience.

In the coming weeks, the Adirondack Coast Visitors Bureau will compile an economic impact report to better understand the effects of this event on our region. We look forward to sharing this information with our members and using it to inform future initiatives aimed at promoting tourism and economic growth.

As we reflect on the success of the Adirondack Coast eclipse, we invite businesses and community members to share their photos and stories from the day. Your contributions will help capture the spirit of this memorable event and highlight the collective efforts that made it possible.

Once again, we extend our gratitude to everyone who helped make the Adirondack Coast eclipse a memorable experience. Your hospitality and support are truly appreciated.

Kristy, Alyssa and the Chamber team!
