Admission to the Science Center will be FREE to all visitors for the special day of activities. The students from Rapid Valley will be doing continuous demonstrations from 1: 00 to 3: 00 pm.

A movie entitled " Every Building Has A Story To Tell" will be shown in the North Wing of the Science Center at 1: 00, 1: 30, and 2: 30 pm. The movie, a collaborative effort between teachers and students at Rapid Valley Elementary, documents the history of buildings in the Rapid City downtown historic district. At 3: 00 PM Rhonda Buell Schier, granddaughter of Rapid City pioneers, Charles and Maud Buell, will take you for a trip into local history with treasures from the 1889 Buell House. Ms. Schier will engage your interest, intellect and imagination with primary source documents and historic artifacts. Learn about people, places and politics through photographs, letters and newspaper stories. As a curriculum writer and piloting teacher of the telecollaborative project, Discover South Dakota, Rhonda shows how these " whatchamacallits", " whochamacallits", and " wherechamacallits" bring history alive in ways textbooks cannot. Learn how to infuse history with electronic tools such as Timeliner, Neighborhood Map Machine, and Community Construction Kit. The Children's Science Center is located at 515 West Boulevard.
