The workshop's goal is to use Micron's campus, workstations,
products, programs and more as a valuable learning laboratory. As a semiconductor manufacturer, Micron is a pioneer
in water recycling and currently recycles a large portion of water
used each day for production at its Boise, Idaho facility.

Gondola Cars

The Colorado Historical Society has acquired a number of historic
gondolas, which are a type of freight car used to transport bulk cargo
including rock, ore, coal and scrap metal. This series of open freight cars were originally
built to haul coal and continued in this service for 64 years. The park
includes nearly 1,000 acres, 12 buildings and four railway bridges,
including the nearly 100-foot-high Devil's Gate bridge over Clear
Creek and the railroad.

According to Alecia Baker, Micron's K-12 Program Manager, teachers
will be provided with hands-on activities that bring work science and
math applications to life in a way that they can then incorporate into
their classroom curriculum. "One
of the best ways to start the preparation is by investing in our
Chemistry, Math, Physics and Physical Science teachers . 746 even served for a time as an
unofficial community dumpster.

In addition, since its formation in 1999, the Micron
Foundation has committed support to Idaho's education and local
communities with more than $8. Micron's
reclamation system is a model for change in the water use habits of
the semiconductor manufacturing industry and earned Micron an award
from the Pacific Northwest Section of the American Water Works
Association for Innovation and Commitment to Water Conservation.

When
narrow-gauge freight operations ceased, many of the 700 series were
moved to Durango for storage. The
park was founded by the Colorado Historical Society in 1959 and the
three miles of narrow-gauge line that connects Georgetown and Silver
Plume , Colorado, as well as the Lebanon Silver Mine, were refurbished
and eventually opened as a heritage tourist attraction.

"Micron connects teachers with its high-tech work environment to
facilitate on-going partnerships with engineers, scientists, chemists,
mathematicians and other professionals and we then provide the
opportunity and funding for these teachers to complete lessons for
their students using the activities in which they have participated,"
Baker said.
