My Mom, Celia Lo Pinto, was one of the original three or 4 people who started the North Shore Jr. Science Museum, and I built an analog computer in our first workshop, located next to the Sands Point Theatre in 1963. My Mom and her friends had a vision and a lot of energy and the results are that forty-five years later I still have my scrapbook of news articles going. In 1970 when we were getting ready to open the Science Center I stopped by to see mom and had a boa constrictor wrap around me and it took over an hour to get loose. Real Science!

I was pleasantly surprised to see a post from Chris LoPinto since I was one of his mom’s friends who started the museum. Chris, you may recall my son, Philip, who was one of the early users of the museum — even though we had to meet in what was once a bakery in the Soundview shopping plaza! That was, of course, before we were fortunate to acquire the present location through the efforts of (I forget the first name) Mrs. Nedbor. Other founders were Doris Leonard and Bea Sherman. The site is fantastic and it was great to learn that the original concept had staying power. Congratulations to all who are currently involved.

Thank you all for your comments. I am proud to be the Director of this fine institution for the past 25 years. The museum is doing well and I hope past founders, trustees and students will continue to support our efforts.
