Renewable Energy Field Trips near Rochester NY

Post by donnat from rochester »

Hello
I am a new Chemistry/Physics teacher in the Rochester, NY area who would love to treat my class to a renewable energy field trip. I contacted Rochester Gas & Electric and was told they don't do this sort of thing after 9/11 (seems counter-intuitive to me). Is anyone aware of other options in this area of the country? Thanks in advance!! :D

Imaginarium opened in Irondequoit this winter (2018). My brother went there today. It has many interesting features and exhibits, and gives tours.
