We would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to Phil Malone, director of GEARS Inc., for our amazing air table! This is the first of many STEM play areas we plan to bring to the play center! Allowing kids hands on learning opportunities in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering and Math!

Our air table has quickly become the favorite of children and parents alike!
