From Nature Discovery Center:

The Center’s two Discovery Rooms will be reopening slowly and with added precautions in place as we continue to heed the health and safety advice of City, County and State officials. Our rooms will be touch free until it is safe to add interactive elements back. All hand lenses, binoculars, puzzles, books, toys, and loose specimens have been removed. But we encourage you to come in and visit our live animals and see the specimens we have on display in enclosures. The Discovery Rooms will be disinfected throughout the day with CDC recommended cleaning products for the safety of our guests, volunteers, and staff.

For now, our plan includes the following:

Restricted Hours: Saturday’s ONLY beginning May 16 from 12 pm – 3 pm (possibly switching to Sundays ONLY after May 30)

Limited Attendance: 12 visitors at a time will be allowed inside the Center.Kids must be supervised by an adult at all times.

Masks will be required inside the Center for everyone ages 10 and up.

One Way Flow in and out of the Center (enter from the front porch, exit from the upstairs side door down the outdoor stairs)

Hand washing will be required in the upstairs bathroom before entry to the Discovery Rooms.

Individuals and small family groups should practice social distancing from unrelated visitors. Please maintain a distance of at least 6 feet when you visit.

We understand that visiting the Center is a decision that each family must make based on their personal risk factors. But we hope to see you as soon you feel that it is safe for your family to return to the Center.
