It was a wonderful experience and a gorgeous place. The staff, most of whom are still there, were talented and dedicated. I live in Washington State and have not yet been able to take my fifteen year old daughter there -- and maybe now I never will. I'm tired of things and places that inhance our lives being taken away from us. (I work in a library system so am way too familiar with money cuts.) Since I'm not a resident of NY State (although my mother was born and raised in Jamestown, NY so I'm kind of one!?!?!), I don't think anything I would write would help the cause. Just know there is someone across the country who also loves Rogers and just knowing it's there made my life better. Karin I worked as an intern at Rogers from January through March of 1989.

Is it really needed to have that facility going I say no. do we need snow plows I say yes. give me a break I think it is a good move. there is a big expense to running that facility just one employee rakes in close to 6 digits a year and there needs to be cut backs someplace.
