Schedule of Events
August 26, 2008: August Coping Social to the Columbia River Exhibition of History, Science & Technology
Join us at 9:30 am at the Edith Bishel Center to board a Ben Franklin Bus (wheel chair accessible). If you have a Dial-A-Ride pass or if you
are 60 years and older you can ride for free; everyone else pays $1 each way. We will arrive at the CREHST Museum at 10:00 am and participate
in a hands-on experience of the local American Indian culture and Lewis and Clark expedition. Ever wonder how people lived here on the banks of the
Columbia River 50 to 500 years ago? Then we will tour and learn about science and the nuclear history of Hanford and examine the critical role it
played in the historic Manhattan Project and its rich history. At 12:00 pm we will leave the CREHST Museum and walk over to Sterling's Restaurant
for lunch at your own cost. Then we will take a afternoon stroll for a bus pick up at the Richland Community Center at 2:00 pm, returning to the
center at 2:30 pm.
Cost for this event is $3.00. RSVP no later than August 22nd by contacting Cynthia McCready, Events and
Fundraising Coordinator, or by calling (509)735-0699.
