A GIFT THAT ECHOES
BURLINGTON, Vt - It's said that it is better to give than to
receive, but wouldn't it be great if you could do both? Now you
can, with ECHO's Annual Pass Matching Gift program. Throughout
this holiday season, whenever you purchase or renew an Annual
Pass to ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center, at the Leahy
Center for Lake Champlain, ECHO will give an Annual Pass to a
low-income neighbor.
The Annual Pass Matching Gift is an ECHO's Open Door
community access program, made possible through partnerships
with social service agencies, an EPA matching grant, Comcast
sponsorship, and individual donations.
An ECHO Annual Pass is $27 per adult; $24 per senior or
college student; and $18 for a child, and grants unlimited
admission, year-round. Annual Pass Holders also receive free
admission to over 280 other science centers around the country.
To purchase an ECHO Annual Pass Matching Gift call
1-877-ECHOFUN; or go to
echovermont.org and click on "You Give. We Give."; or, when
visiting ECHO, simply ask the Front Desk staff.
ECHO Lake Aquarium and Science Center is located at the
Leahy Center for Lake Champlain, on Vermont's Burlington
Waterfront. ECHO features 70 species of live fish, amphibians,
invertebrates, and reptiles, over 100 hands-on experiences,

Champlain Navy Memorial, ECHO's Eclectic Gift Shop, and seasonal
café. Open year-round, 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Closed Christmas Eve &
