“We are honored to support this initiative…”

“NTC is proud to support the Children’s Imaginarium through which children of Marathon County will be provided a comprehensive environment to discover the wonders of health, science, technology, engineering and mathematics through hands-on activities. We are honored to support this initiative”

Dr. Lori Weyers
Past NTC President

“What we heard, we liked …”

“We first heard about the concept in 2014. What we heard, we liked – a central Wausau location, a place for all children and families to spend time together interacting and learning, collaboration with other child-centered organizations and educational institutions, and a project that we feel has legs to sustain itself.”

Bob and Peg Wolff
Community Members

“a great start for kids…”

“The Children’s Imaginarium would provide a central place to promote early educational opportunities, give ‘a great start for kids,’ and provide the groundwork for lifelong learning.”

Kristine Gilmore
Former DC Everest Superintendent
