This collaborative event, hosted by the North Platte Area Children’s Museum and Golden Spike Tower & Visitors Center, is designed to engage young minds in transportation and engineering concepts. “This is a perfect opportunity for us to meet families where they are — outside, exploring and learning together,” stated Sierra Gardner, Executive Director of the Children’s Museum.
Families can expect interactive activity stations scattered throughout the park, aimed at fostering curiosity and hands-on learning. “While the Children’s Museum is well known for its vibrant indoor exhibits, this event spotlights our dedication to supporting children beyond our walls,” Gardner emphasized.
The event not only highlights various vehicles including tractors, trucks, and even an aircraft but also reflects a growing trend of community-centered programming in North Platte. Local organizations are coming together to create memorable experiences that resonate with families in the area.
Gardner pointed out that this collaborative effort represents more than just fun photo opportunities; it is a testament to how local institutions can enhance their impact collectively. “This is a shining example of community engagement and how we can inspire lifelong learning in children,” she added.
