Minot, N.D. – The Magic City Discovery Center is proud to support military families by offering free admission to all active-duty military personnel and their families, including the National Guard and Reserve, from Sunday, April 6th through Saturday, April 12th. Military families can enjoy a week of hands-on learning and play simply by presenting a valid military ID at the front desk.
April is the Month of the Military Child, a nationwide observance established by the Department of Defense to recognize the resilience, sacrifices, and contributions of military children. These young individuals often face frequent relocations, long periods of their parent being deployed, and unique challenges that come with military life. This event allows the Magic City Discovery Center to give back to these families and provide a place where children can discover, create, explore, and play in a fun and interactive environment.
The Magic City Discovery Center has a special connection to the military community. The Department of Defense played a key role in helping bring this facility to life with generous support, and we’re excited for the opportunity to give back to military families in return. “Our center would not be what it is today without the incredible contributions from the Department of Defense,” said Allan Pearson, Board President of the Magic City Discovery Center. “Offering free admission during the Month of the Military Child is just one way we can give back and show our appreciation for the service members and families who have supported us from the beginning.”
With over 150 interactive exhibits designed to spark curiosity and creativity, the Magic City Discovery Center offers a unique and engaging experience for children of all ages. From hands-on science experiments to immersive play areas, the Discovery Center is dedicated to fostering a love of learning through discovery.
The Magic City Discovery Center encourages the Minot community to help spread the word and celebrate military families by visiting the center, wearing purple on Purple Up! day (April 4th), and showing appreciation for the sacrifices these families make.
