IRS990/Desc0Education/Interpretation- Covid-19 restricted did not permit the opening of the historic house museums for tours and educational programming in 2020. We turned our focus on virtual classroom experiences provided by the state parks personnel funded by our organization where over 5,000 individual visitor contacts were made including Junior Ranger programming, outside table presentations and 12 formal virtual school programs serving over 400 children. In addition, we provided a monthly virtual speaker series drawing over 1,200 viewers. As permitted, the park store staff welcomed 52,000 to our sites providing on site information and services when little else was offered. During this challenging year, we continued to engage the public through virtual hikes, Earth Day Art Contest and park game nights to name a few.
