"The High touch High-tech program has been a fantastic enhancement to our yearly programming schedule. It has allowed us to offer an exciting, fun and educational option for our membership each school vacation week. There is nothing like sitting at your desk on the second floor and seeing a diet soda geyser blast right by the window and then have it accompanied with the screams and cheers of children!"
Joshua Walther, Program Director, Dedham Community House
