Solar Eclipse 2024

Is everybody ready for the total solar eclipse? On April 8th in the afternoon, part of the Earth will be covered in a shadow by the Moon which will block sunlight for four minutes. Spencerport is getting ready for this once in a lifetime event. Dan Schneiderman, the Eclipse Partnership Coordinator at the Rochester Museum and Science Center, will be speaking at the Ogden town meeting room on February 26th from 6-7PM. Everything you need to know about the solar eclipse can be learned at this meeting. You can register for this event at www.ogdenlibrary.com. The town is also putting together a Solar Eclipse Map which will tell the residents about events and activities during the eclipse event. You’ll be able to pick up a map at the Ogden Town Hall very soon. Call the town for more information at 617-6100 or go to www.ogdenny.com to see the map when it’s ready. The Homesteads for Hope Farm is having a great event during the solar eclipse. There’s going to be music and food and activities from 1-6PM on April 8th. For more information, go to www.homesteadsforhope.org. You have to buy a ticket for this event.

Update on the Central Business District

On May 17th of 2023, there was a fire at the building on Union Street next to the canal bridge. Three businesses were displaced: Premier Hypnosis, The Lash Lounge, and Iris Sage Aesthetics. The Lash Lounge moved to Parma Place on Ridge Road and Iris Sage Aesthetics moved to Union Ridge Plaza on North Union Street.

The Masonic Temple in downtown Spencerport is crumbling! A few months ago in October, bricks fell off the side of the hundred year old building on the third floor in the alleyway. It is currently being repaired.

Across the street from the Masonic Temple, everybody knows about the construction that has been going on for almost three years now. They stopped working on the building in October because the crosswalk sign is too close to the building. They’re also waiting on materials.
