Worth the visit!
We have passed this venue numerous times. Finally made effort to visit. Wow! Facility is beautiful, entertaining, and informative! Staff is warm and welcoming. Admission is very reasonable (both of us are veterans and our admission was free). Takes about 1 hour or more to experience. Plenty of hands on exhibits for all ages. There is a dog park, splash park, and playground.

Enjoyable museum
What a nice museum for a small town. Spent about an hour and a half there looking at the exhibits and watching a movie they had about how the town of Boardman had been relocated due to the dam being built. It was very clean which made it feel like a safe activity to do during Covid. A good way to spend some time if you are staying in Boardman or just driving through.

Stop along Columbia river
On our trip in the area my husband was obsessed with the irrigation systems out here so he was thrilled to discover the Sage center. It was full of history and education about sustainable farming. All ages of multigenerational family enjoyed reading and interacting with displays.

Interesting and fun
Clean, informative! Fun playground got the kids right out of the car. Inside had a scavenger hunt for the kids. We all loved watching the video in the hot air balloon simulation. Great for families and kids!
