“Wwii weekend: infoage displayed a special pearl harbor exhibit which included an artifact from the u.s.s. Arizona donated by the family of a deceased nj veteran who survived the attack on december 7, 1941; also exhibited were german and japanese battle flags signed by members of the units that captured them. A striking new "wwii leaders" mannequin exhibit featuring churchill, hitler, stalin, hirohito and mussolini was opened; the roosevelt mannequin was not available for the weekend. Also highlighted were realistic wwii battle dioramas; a wwii home front living room, and national archives wwii commemorative posters. A wwii artist exhibit showed the works of us marine corps colonel charles waterhouse, the former "usmc artist in residence", the first and only person to earn such recognition, and ugo giannini, a wwii infantryman who drew pencil drawings of combat in the 29th infantry division. Our many other ww ii displays and exhibits were available to visitors. Develop: as a former army top secret r&d site, establish an interactive hands-on learning center focused on the evolution and preservation of communications, electronics and related technologies developed here and elsewhere. At the end of 2019 infoage received a 3:2 matching grant from the nj historic trust capital grant to begin the restoration of the two marconi era cottages. This will include power-washing the brick buildings and scraping and painting three garages and the cottages' exterior woodwork. The work will commence in the spring of 2020. We also received a general operating support grant from the new jersey historical commission some of which funds will be used to begin the restoration of building 9010b, the future radar museum/pavilion. A generous donation from an infoage board member enabled us to completely restore the original 1940's camp evans flagpole. Wall township, our leaseholder continues to support our efforts to restore and repair this national historic landmark. In 2019 they provided other in-kind support such as snow plowing, landscaping, tree trimming, and debris removal. History of the site camp evans was once the 1914 marconi belmar trans-atlantic wireless station which opened world-wide wireless communications. It played an important role in wwi trans-atlantic communications and was the first campus of the king's college. Beginning in 1941 when the army located on the site, camp evans played a key role the development of radar as an effective wwii secret weapon; it opened space communications in 1946; it was a cold war technology site; and it was a nuclear weapons research site. It was the birthplace of satellite-based hurricane tracking, was a pre-nasa space research site, and is a black history site. Infoage (www.infoage.com) took over 37 acres of camp evans in 2006 which now serves as our campus. Under the infoage umbrella are many 501c3 organizations that support infoage's mission by showing how science, technology, engineering and math contribute to their specific disciples or areas of interest. These include radio communications, rail and maritime transportation, computers, military technology, robotics, and space exploration. In addition, these organizations have over $7,000,000 worth of artifacts, equipment exhibits, and hands-on and interactive displays at our campus. Some statistics: during 2019 we had over 13,500 visitors and our volunteers contributed over 45,500 hours of their time to infoage and its organizations. This was a slight drop from 2018 as we discontinued our halloween fundraiser which resulted in a drop of visitors and volunteer hours. In addition, we had 53,381 hits on our isec (infoage space exploration center) site and 25,673 on our infoage website. The wall township environmental advisory committee/green team awarded infoage their green business recognition program certificate of certification for our efforts in protecting our ecosystem and they acknowledged us as being "green initiative friendly".
