    About Us
    General
    Information
    ... Educators We are a discovery museum for young people (ages 2-12) and their families, providing hands-on exhibits and programs designed to encourage visitors to learn by doing, imagining, creating and making choices. Our primary audience is children of the mountain community and the tourist population that visit the destination resort area of Yosemite National Park. We average 400-500 visitors monthly. The museum operates under the auspices of the Educational Enhancement Foundation, a private nonprofit organization (classified as a 501(c) 3 by the IRS. Funds are generated by private contributions and earned income from membership, admission fees, grants, gift shop sales and special events. All staffing, research, development, program and exhibit designs have been provided by devoted, generous volunteers who have a passion for our museum and enhancing the lives of children The museum was founded in 1995 by a group of parents and individuals interested in bringing specialized programs to young people of the mountain community. In 1997 the museum was awarded a grant by United Way of Madera County allowing the museum to open to the public on July 19, 1997 in a 1,000 square foot site. We soon outgrew this space and began searching for larger quarters that were affordable. We moved during February of 2000 into our new location of approximately 4000 square feet of exhibit space!

    Left brain/Areas of expertise
    Project Management Companies have lots to talk about with their clients and customers. One way to get a conversation going is through an e-mail newsletter, online magazine, or print custom publication. But, putting out issue after issue with fresh information that clients care about quickly becomes a tedious chore if it's not something you're used to doing. That's why Table of Content, my editorial services firm, works with corporations to plan and execute custom publications, via print and electronic media, for their customers and clients. My team of nationally published editors, writers and production experts help each client develop a vision for its publication. Then, we come up with a publishing plan to deliver just the right information in just the right way to just the right audience. Some of these projects aren't available for casual inspection, but you can take a peek at Technomic International's Market Map Table of Content is partnering with the Internet Home Alliance and House of Business magazine to publish a special IHA-sponsored section in every issue of House of Business. The Alliance is all about encouraging Americans to integrate internet services into their lives to make everyday tasks quicker, easier and more effective. The section that I'm managing for HOB and the Alliance will help readers take advantage of broadband connections to make the internet work for them everyday.

Three floors of surprising experiences await in this St. Louis attraction, built by wildly imaginative artists and designers. You can broadcast from a radio station or television news set, become an investigator in the Crime Lab, travel through the human body and explore the subterranean world of the city.

    One hypothesis has been tested again and again. Give students a chance to use their brains; question the world around them and apply scientific methods to solve important; relevant problems and you've provided them with an experience they can use their whole lives. That's what the Massachusetts State Science Fair is all about. For over five decades; thousands of students have challenged themselves in eleven different categories. And in the process of scientific discovery; they've managed to have a lot of fun along the way. The Community School, Inc.
