The George Rogers Clark Heritage Association (GRCHA) is a non-profit organization dedicated to preserving the history of George Rogers Clark and his role in America's history. Clark, who was born and raised in Springfield, Ohio, was a Revolutionary War officer and a leader of the western pioneers and settlers. He is credited with securing the Northwest Territory for the United States in 1783.

The GRCHA was founded in 1984 with the mission of educating and inspiring the public about George Rogers Clark and the contributions he made to the development of the Northwest Territory. The GRCHA works to preserve the legacy of Clark and his family through its museum, library, and archives. The museum features artifacts, documents, and photographs related to Clark and his family. The archives contain more than 600 items, including Clark's original family Bible, a portrait of Clark, and other items. The library contains books, periodicals, and other materials about Clark and his family.

The GRCHA offers a variety of programs and events, including the annual George Rogers Clark Heritage Days celebration, which includes activities, entertainment, and educational events. The GRCHA also provides educational programs for students and teachers, as well as speaker series, special events, and tours.

The GRCHA is located in the Springfield History Center, a historical building that was once the home of Clark's grandparents. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is open to the public. The GRCHA is committed to providing access to Clark's legacy and the history of the early pioneers and settlers of the Northwest Territory.

Total Solar Eclipse - April 8, 2024 Totality! Only the sun's corona is visible. Down here on the ground it appears like nighttime, and the temperature has cooled. One of us even put on a sweater due to the chill! This and the other pics were taken in Urbana, Ohio, at Freshwater Farms. It's a fish hatchery - but they also hosted an eclipse festival! #TotalEclipse2024

Total Solar Eclipse - April 8, 2024 Totality! Only the sun's corona is visible. At the bottom, slightly left, a prominence from the sun can be seen (purple blur). This is an area of ionized gas projecting from the sun's surface. Down here on the ground it appears like nighttime, and the temperature has cooled. One of us even put on a sweater due to the chill! #TotalEclipse2024
Total Solar Eclipse - April 8, 2024 Totality! The sun's corona is visible. I can't remember if the filters were on the camera for this image. This and the other pics were taken in Urbana, Ohio, at Freshwater Farms. It's a fish hatchery - but they also hosted an eclipse festival! #TotalEclipse2024
Total Solar Eclipse - April 8, 2024 This pic was taken with a 300mm telephoto lens with three stacked ND filters. The three filters reduced light by 1/4, 1/8, and 1/16 respectively, for a total of 1/512 light transmittance (0.195% of actual light enters the lens). Even with these filters, the photo is over-exposed. The light entering is so strong it bounces inside the lens and produces artifacts - i.e. shadow images of the actual image. #TotalEclipse2024
