Combining an indoor museum with an outdoor educational park will provide our children with a very powerful learning tool. Children s Discovery House supporters and volunteers should be commended for the great job they re doing. The museum will complement what the Corps of Engineers is doing. Educational parks are planned for both wetlands areas. Several endangered plants also depend on these areas for survival.
Wetlands even aid flood control efforts because of the natural underground drainage systems there.
This project has many advantages to it and preserves valuable green space in a community that has seen tremendous growth in the last decade. Such responsible planning is vital in helping us save the few crucial environmental resources that remain.
