    The Discovery Center is really a hidden gem in North County San Diego! I love bringing my child here to explore, play and learn. What I really love about the center is their awesome kids birthday parties! They have packages for different age levels and it’s really such a great party. The kids and parents all love it! You get a party host to help you run the party and there is plenty of time to explore and play with friends. The setting overlooks the back side of the lagoon which is perfect! I cannot recommend having a party here enough. What I love most is the money you pay to book the party goes back into nature! A win win for your child and the environment! This is the second party I’ve done at the center for my son and it’s been perfect every time. The parties are well organized. The party planner Samantha was communicative, accommodating and super helpful and our party host Isabella was great with the children and helped keep our activities going smoothly! 10/10 awesome kids party spot!

    Karleigh is a long-time member who enjoys visiting the Discovery Campus with her children. When she first joined, she was new to the area and found the Campus on a whim and decided to enroll in an educational program. There, she met another member whose kid was the same age as Karleigh’s daughter and the two became fast friends. Because of their shared love of the outdoors and fostering community, the two became regulars together every morning. Sharing their mornings with their kids and warm cups of coffee, surrounded by a community they built at Agua Hedionda Lagoon Foundation.

    Denise is a recent member who was tasked with planning a party for a large family from all different states that was to be hosted at the Discovery Campus. Through the rental process, she became a member and worked closely with the Agua Team. After much back and forth, two date changes and a whole lot of playing telephone, the party came together and they had a lovely time. Because of the warmth she felt during every phase of planning, Denise fell in love with the lagoon and has been attending every members night since.
