Interesting article that I juuust came across .. from the Newspaper
Association of America .. originally came out in July, but what the heck,
better late than never. - Those involved with education may particularly
enjoy it.
Anyway .. Here's a brief intro:

"For some young people, summer is a time to just relax and do nothing, but
for others it's a time to experiment, explore and experience a new and
different slice of life. If you are looking for something new to do this
summer--or anytime at all--consider making the most of museums by sampling
some in your own community. You might be surprised at the variety of
museums almost under your nose!"

And for those of you who are keeping track of such things .. yes, as a
matter of fact, my site is included in the article as a point for further
exploration. - (and BTW - for those of you in San Diego, did you happen to
read this wednesday's Quest section in the Union Trib? - What a surprise
when I opened it up and .. there was my site .. being featured.)


Working hard to "get the word out" about what museums have to offer the
public, educators, etc etc ..  ;-)
