UMaine touch tank cited in WABI report on school vacation
A University of Maine touch tank located at the Maine Discovery Museum in downtown Bangor was mentioned in a WABI (Channel 5) report about educational school vacations for local children. Kim Stewart, program manager at the museum, said children used the tank, which is on loan from UMaine, to learn about ocean animals including horseshoe crabs and sea stars. “[They] got spit on by scallops this morning so they’ve been having a lot of fun,” she said of the students.
