Louise Dickmeyer
Chief Executive Officer
When I was a girl visiting my Grandparents, my Grandma used to let my sister and me put on the old lace petticoats she had in her attic. We would pretend we were brides or princesses – sometimes adding a lace curtain held on with a headband as a veil. It was one of my most special play memories from our visits.
Rochelle Koberoski
Ag & Nature Education Manager
I grew up on a farm and loved being outdoors. You could find me playing in the woods, chasing minnows and crawdads in the creek, jumping around in the hay mow, tunneling into snow banks, and biking or playing softball with the neighborhood kids.
Garron Williams
Facilities Manager
As a child I liked to do home improvement, sledding and play in the pasture by the pond.
Luke Splinter
Lead Fabricator
As a child I liked climbing trees, taking everything apart and not getting it back together, and making things from LEGO sets to large wooden catapults.
Karmy Luker
Museum Experience Supervisor
I used to do science experiments as a kid. I’d let things get moldy or allow bugs to come all over them. If you’d bring that up with my family now, they’d just cringe! I broke so many things as I tried to figure out how they worked.
Wyatt Miller
Museum Experience Supervisor
The thing I remember most from playing as a kid is always being curious about how and why things worked. That curiosity led to my interest in tinkering, taking small things apart and putting parts together to make something new. It is like a childhood dream come true that I get to work somewhere that not only allows kids to channel that same creative curiosity, but encourages them to do so, it’s fantastic.
