The Writing is on the Wall!

The mural on the east-outside wall of the Exploration Station is getting closer to completion thanks to all the hard work of our volunteers and master-muralist Deborah Harris. The mural which was designed by Matthew Hoffman, has been 2 years in the making. On Earth Day this past April 19th, much of the final detailing was completed and it's looking GREAT! Come by the Exploration Station and see for yourself....

Construction is Underway!

Building construction at the Exploration Station has begun!! As they say, "excuse our dust..." The inside of the Exploration Station is being equipped with a new Computers 4 Youth work area while the remainder will be devoted to the new Children's Museum (see the Children's Museum section of this site for more information). This is phase 1 of a two part construction project that will dramatically increase the square footage of the facility and allow us to offer more programs and services to our local community.

Exploration Station's Celebration of
Earth Day a Huge Success !

Our celebration Earth Day this year on Saturday, April 19th was a great success! The E-Waste program we held in conjunction with 1-800-Got-Junk? recycled over 13,400 pounds of discarded electronic waste in an environmentally friendly manner.

Plus, our Computers 4 Youth program was able to salvage about 15 computers to be refurbished and distributed to low income families and non profit organizations in our local community.

In total, about 7 tons of electronic waste materials were recycled that may have otherwise ended up in our landfills.
