Michael arrived early to prepare for the scouts. His high energy kept the students and parent engaged. His was very accommodating, knowledgeable and friendly. As an employee of ComEd, I wanted the experience to be worth while and it definitely exceeded my expectations. I will plan another trip with my son’s other groups because other children can benefit from this experience.

We are studying Electricity and this trip completely tied everything together. Our students were raving about their experience and everything that they learned. I loved the experience and will recommend it to my colleagues. Also, the two presenters were AWESOME!!!!!

Interesting content – long spoken information for 10 year old students We had an unusually large group, but sitting for 2/3 of the 75+ minutes was difficult. I know it was a training day and perhaps that limited our mobility and exposure options – but that would have been good to know in advance or perhaps no visits on those days. Our guide was interesting and kind, just too much verbal and not much motion before the last 15 minutes of our visit. It was a very pleasant experience and I think it is a great service to the community.
