This major milestone celebrates generations of visitors who have explored New Hampshire's natural world at the Science Center.The milestone visitors were Geraldine, John, and their four-year old daughter, from Pawtucket, Rhode Island. The family was visiting the Science Center for the first time while traveling home from a family trip to North Conway. Geraldine is a nurse and former volunteer at a wildlife clinic in Rhode Island and John is a firefighter.To celebrate the occasion, the Science Center surprised the family with a lifetime membership and two Guided Squam Lake Cruise tickets.“When we realized back in the spring that we were within 66,500 of eclipsing the two million mark, we were confident that it would happen some time in October,” said Iain MacLeod, executive director. “As we ticked down to the big day, we primed the staff and board to be ready to greet the lucky family. Geraldine and John were the perfect recipients. We can’t wait to welcome them back for many years to come.”The Science Center welcomed over 68,000 visitors during its 2026 season, making the two millionth visitor milestone an especially exciting achievement during its 60th anniversary year. The milestone reflects the Science Center's lasting impact on generations of visitors and its continued commitment to inspiring joy, connection, and wonder for the natural world.Although the Live Animal Exhibit Trail has closed for the 2026 season, the Science Center continues to offer educational programs and special events throughout the year.
