The board and staff of the Weather Discovery Center wish to thank the families and friends of our contestants who voted and contributed to our educational mission. The monies will support our educational programs and events.  We would also like to thank the volunteers who took time to help us man the cans. Without them this would not be possible. 

Finally, thank you to Paul Beatty Jewelers for donating the beautiful tiara for Miss Groundhog, Roseman’s Florist for the beautiful flowers and ribbon, Standard Pennant for the adorable t-shirts, and the Inner Circle members of the Groundhog Club and Punxsutawney Phil for doing the honors today.
