CEO/Executive Director/Board Comments
The Executive Director is responsible for the day-to-day operation of HOSC and reports to the Executive Committee. The Board operates under HOSC Bylaws and the Board of Directors meets monthly. We have updated our policies and procedures during FY 2017. HOSC opened its doors in August of 1995 and has been consistent in attendance for the last several years. We had over 20,000 visitors a year (10,000+ of which are children). We host over 50 school groups a year and provide them a science show. We currently have approximately 100 interactive exhibits. |
