I would LOVE to hear about family sleepover success stories. We instituted
two new sleepovers this year, Family and Youth SeaSnoozes. Family
SeaSnoozes are just how they sound. Families pre-register for a scheduled
Family SeaSnooze date and then join other families for a marine science
evening at our Aquarium. As for the Youth SeaSnoozes, parents sign up their
children for a scheduled night and the idea is for all the "yutes" to
befriend one another throughout the fun-filled night. We have had little
success with each of these programs. Anyone else have similar issues? Or
resolutions?

Eric (and others)....
Its been a while since I've worked for a science center, but I would
like to advocate for at least one group to be included - families. I
have two young boys (10 and 6) and would welcome such a
program....just my 2 cents....
