Special to the Enterprise
Explorit has had another successful year of brining science to our community. This fall we opened “Blast Off! Journey Through our Solar System”, hosted many fun and engaging weekend events, facilitated camps and birthday parties. None of these engagements would have been successful without our dedicated crew of volunteers. They help our staff with camps, workshops, events, parties, day-to-day tasks, and during our weekend open hours. Explorit wishes to recognize these wonderful individuals who take time out of their lives to help us out and keep us up and running.
Thank you to our 2024 volunteers: Adrian M., Akbar S., Ally H., Anna T., Asha M., Audrey T., Brianna G., Brynn H., Chloe J., Cole M., Diana B., Eliana, A., Grace L., Haylee K., Irene X., Isabella K., Jack S., Jenna K., Jongsuk B., Juniper B, Kaleb G., Kaya G., Kristen K., Leanna K., Lewis W., Liz B., Luke H., Max M., Maya Y., Mina C., Mira I., Neeraj C., Neha D., Nichole D., Nikhil H., Nikki W., Raisa K., Renata F., Rohan C., Sherlyn S., Soul G., Ted H., Tim H., Zewen Z.
