This year is the 50th anniversary of the Discovery Center, and also the 250th anniversary for our country.
We are having a huge celebration, called DISCOVER! 5.0 Saturday, Sept. 5th, 2026 Located at Medi-Park by the Discovery Center.
The Amarillo Symphony will put on a great show, along with a Drone show finale. Insufficient Funds will rock Medi-Park, including many other acts and activities from 12:00 PM to 10:30 PM.
We need volunteers just like you to come and help us with this celebration. You will receive a shirt, hang out with the public, and help our VIP’s, it won’t be hard work at all!
If you are with a school organization, you and your friends can work together and help your organization at the same time.
