It's a FAMILY AFFAIR at Raven Hill Discovery Center this second Saturday in 2010, January 9th from noon to 4 pm. Thanks to a grant awarded by the Charlevoix County Community Foundation, the Center will offer free admission and special science activities on the second Saturday of each month in 2010, starting this Saturday, January 9th. Bring the whole family "team" OR make it a special event for parent and child. There will be fun problem-solving demos & activities to fit various ages, abilities and interests every month.
Family groups can strengthen creative & critical thinking skills by trying a different science challenge each month, plus enjoy the museum, animals and outdoor exhibits. The focus in January will be Towering Towers. Small fry can use building blocks while older children can try other challenges, such as domino towers, Jenga towers, paper towers and playing card towers.
Raven Hill Discovery Center is the only place in northern Lower Michigan where children and adults can link science, history & the arts with hands-on activities and explorations both indoors and outdoors. Connections emerge through classes, exhibits and facilities that provide opportunities for all ages to learn, create, grow and play.
Raven Hill Discovery Center is located between East Jordan & Boyne City, just off C-48 at Pearsall Road. For more information or questions or for winter road conditions, please call 231.536.3369.
