Dave Frazer, vice president of the society’s board of trustees, said by getting the grant, the society will be able to make improvements, even after local funding sources expire, without having to continuously raise admission prices.

"There are a lot of challenges ahead of us in the future," he said. "And we need to start an endowment fund to help us into the future."
