Destination For Discovery - Transforming a Traditional Nature Center

Tamarack Nature Center (TNC) has embarked on a multi-year project entitled "Destination for Discovery."  The enhanced TNC will provide opportunities for visitors to develop personal relationships with nature through a variety of means.  Guided by this master plan and a commitment to responding to our community's needs, the project redefines what it means to be a regional nature center and redesigns facilities, trails, programs and exhibits, to reflect that definition.  The master plan outlines a five-year program to transform TNC into a Destination for Discovery.
