Museum of Science and Industry
Over 200 participants enjoyed a day of family fun and information sharing at the Museum of Science and Industry. This program was offered to our members with MS and their immediate families (up to 4 free admissions total).
Everyone was able to stop by the perennial Museum favorites (such as the U-505 Submarine, the Space Center, and the Fairy Castle) and soak up one of the museum’s new exhibits including Earth Revealed, Smart Home: Green + Wired 09 and a variety of Live Science Shows set throughout the space. The day of activities also included the opportunity for everyone to hear from chapter staff and volunteers the many ways in which the chapter is poised to support families in new and engaging ways.
Lunch for each registered guest was provided in a private seating area. One paid parking voucher per family was also provided at check-in.
