DiscoveryCuhe <br /> Santa Ana Waste Free Days <br /> Proposed Scope of Work <br /> Program Overview <br /> Discovery Cube of Orange County, in partnership with the City of Santa Ana, will provide its <br /> residents with free access to the science center on the first Tuesday of each month from May <br /> 2026 to August 2026. These designated days, referred to as Santa Ana Waste Free Days, will <br /> highlight the importance of environmental sustainability through engaging educational <br /> programming, interactive demonstrations, and hands-on activities for all ages. <br /> Discovery Cube, recognized nationally as a leader in science education and home to a variety of <br /> environmentally focused exhibits, offers a unique platform for the City of Santa Ana to advance <br /> community-wide goals related to recycling, composting, and responsible waste disposal. This <br /> partnership will leverage Discovery Cube's expertise and resources to inspire Santa Ana residents <br /> to adopt sustainable practices at home, school, and in the community. <br /> Our partnership will enable Santa Ana participants to engage with the Eco Challenge exhibits, <br /> including Race to Recycle, Helicopter Tours, Eco Garage, Discovery Market, and the Organic Waste <br /> Lab. With the implementation of S8 1383, the outdoor Organic Waste Lab serves as a vital <br /> educational resource for Santa Ana residents, teaching them how to preserve environmental <br /> resources through organic recycling and composting. We are dedicated to working closely with the <br /> Santa Ana community to achieve meaningful results. <br /> Task 1: Program Elements <br /> On each Waste Free Clay, Discovery Cube will deliver a variety of engaging, family-friendly <br /> educational experiences designed to build environmental awareness and inspire action.
