A discussion about creating a science discovery center along the Tuckasegee River will be held from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday, May 12, at the Fairfield Inn and Suites across from Harrah’s Cherokee Casino.

This brainstorming meeting is open to those wanting to discuss the educational components of such a center. This is the first of three workshops intended to produce a feasibility report on the center. The second and third workshops will involve government and business sectors, respectively, and they will be held later in the summer.

A final general meeting will be held to inform the public about the progress made toward establishing a center. Light meal will be served. RSVP requested.
