We went to the Amoskeag Fishways in Machester, NH today and here is my review.....Date: 5/14/2009
Parking: Plenty
Gate/Admissions: There is no fee to get into the Amoskeag Fishways. They do however, have a box that you can put donations into. The staff is very kind and informative.
Birthday Parties: I did not see anything listed for birthday parties.
Bathroom: There are two bathrooms down stairs where you view the fish ladder. I did not see a changing table.
Cleanliness: Very clean.
Overall: It is very small, but they have a lot to offer as far as family programs and events. (Check out their event list here). They also offer a lot of education programs. (Check out their educational programs here). If you homeschool, they offer a programs for that too! (Check out the homeschool programs here). My son enjoyed the fish ladder, where we saw four Salmon! He also liked the snake, frogs and turtles. We were there for about 35 minutes then he was ready to go. After we went to Derryfield Park (you can read my review here).
We are going tomorrow :) We can't wait.
ReplyDeleteI like your blog. There are some really interesting articles featured by our experts on the bizymoms waterbury community experts page.
ReplyDeleteHi- we brought our son here this spring (May 2009). He was one 22 months at the time. he really enjoyed the tiny nature museum they have there. We were there at a quite time, so one of the employees took a small turtle out of its cage and let my son watch it move around the floor. My son still talks about that turtle to this day.
ReplyDeleteThe whole place is rather small, so it only took us about a 1/2 hour to go through it, but it was a pleasant diversion. It also pretty close to Derryfield Park
