The Kennecott Nature Center

The Kennecott Nature Center

Through a generous initial donation from Kennecott Utah Copper Corporation, the efforts of the Murray Education Foundation (MEF), and the assistance of many community donors, the Kennecott Nature Center provides opportunities for thousands of children from Murray City School District and selected Granite School District fourth-grade classes to enjoy observing and learning about nature up close and hands on. The building was designed in a null of earth making it not visible from street level, on top of the buildings roof, houses a garden of native Utah plants. Below near the waters edge is a nature trail with native trees, were previous students planted, students can get up close to wildlife and the river.

The 1600 square foot classroom of the Kennecott Nature Center is nestled on the second largest wetland site of the Jordan River at 5044 S. Lucky Clover Lane (approx.5100 South and 800 West) in Murray, Utah. [ [http://www.murrayschools.org/wworks/districtoffice_kennecott.shtml Murray City School District ] ]
