What's New at the Museum...

Science Camp

Three different science camps are being offered in July for students entering grades 6, 7, and 8.  Each week long ½ day camp is based on a different topic - forensics, art, or the animal kingdom.   Attend one or all three! For more information click on the camps tab at the top of the page or call the museum office.

“You run a top notch program.  I have been recommending it to other parents & friends.  Your staff people are very professional and well spoken.   We will be Curator & Scout patrons for as long as you run the programs.  Kudos to you all!”
