"Visited the Phelps Pavilion when the grandkids were here earlier in the month. What a terrific facility so clean and organized and the staff working that day were extremely friendly."

“MOM!! I got to milk a fake cow and it made noise every time I squirted it!”

"Yassie's birthday party was a great hit! Everything was perfect. The kids loved the activity and some of them including Yassie lingered when it was time to go to the Pavilion to finish their activity! The Pavilion was a definite hit and good thing I got the Passport, all three of my kids were asking to come back and all the kids had such a fun time."

“This place is amazing! It is very interactive and there are lots of things for kids to do. Every classroom should visit.”
- Mrs. Boehmer, Pre-K teacher
"This is an amazing space for kids and adults. The night the city council toured, we could barely get people to leave the exhibits in time for our meeting. I liked one councilman's comment: I can't believe this is in Waterloo. It's like something you'd see in Chicago. Congratulations to all who made it possible."

"This is a wonderful addition to the Cedar Valley. We are very fortunate to have dedicated donors, staff, volunteers, and community leaders who helped make this happen. Great to have this preview."
- Mary Ann Burk, Community Foundation of Northeast Iowa
