The Museum has received $4,000 from the Sanford Enrichment Fund that will be used for our Morris Third Grade Educational Program. The program was very successful last year, and we are thrilled to receive the funding so we can do it again this year.

Thank you, Constellation Energy, for your $10,000 grant to create an exhibit commemorating Dresden 1 Nuclear Power Plant. We are looking forward to working with you to create this new and exciting exhibit.
