The Lutz Children's Museum is home to the state's largest animal rehabilitation facility east of the Connecticut River. While every effort is made to return animals to their natural environment whenever possible, they keep them if the animal can not return to the wild. It is the home of the groundhog who is the state's official prognosticator of the status of spring each February 2. Each day one of the museum's animal handlers presents a short program about one animal. The museum's has presentations, performances, literacy and homeschooling programs, art show openings, workshops and classes for pre-schoolers.
Hours: The museum is open Tuesdays through Fridays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturdays and Sundays from noon until 5 p.m. Admission: Admission is $4 per person, or purchase a membership and receive unlimited admission and discounts on classes and performances. Membership is $40 for families.

My two young children and I spend many weekday afternoons here. There is a great play park with a sandbox. Adjacent to it there is a bathroom which is always very clean. There is also a aviary with many types of birds including ducks and a peacock. They have food dispensers which for 25 cents give a handful of food to feed the birds. There is a soda machine near the playground. For grownups, the gardens are beautiful and plentiful so you will never feel crowded

This is a great, modern community college with tons of learning options for students of all ages. Their campus is about two minutes from the a main highway and is easy to find with plentiful, well-lit, safe parking. There are several different classroom buildings so it can be difficult to find your way around at times. The campus buildings are well lit, and safe. The bathrooms are plentiful and clean.
The classes offered range from for credit courses for a degree program to non credit courses for individuals wishing to learn about a specific topic. Some of the recent non credit courses offered were for Feng Shui and cooking.
I would definitely recommend this college as a safe, inexpensive, local option for all learning needs.
