A Fun Place to Learn
In October 2005, the refuge opened the Conservation Learning Center. It was funded with $300,000 of community support, and a $150,000 matching grant from U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.
Two main features of the facility are the Aquarium Room with live exhibits of native fishes, reptiles and amphibians, and the Discovery Room with six learning stations, five computer stations, sinks, reading corner with books and wildlife puppets, and state of the art audio/visual equipment. The Discovery Room can be set up for seating over 100 or with tables and chairs for 40.
