Richard Newman of Boca Raton, Fla., is trying to put a Science and
Technology Center in every state—mostly at Scout camps—and he
wants to keep all of them free to the public.
“This
is a hobby that keeps getting bigger all the time,” he says.
Newman’s biggest project this year was the Science and Technology
Center that opened in April at the Seminole Scout Camp in Davie, Fla.
In May, a smaller version opened in Pembroke Pines, Fla., at a
middle-school campus.
One of the biggest hits at the Davie camp is the world’s first
electric car. It was donated by Florida Atlantic University’s school
of engineering and refurbished by High-Tech Productions, which Newman
owns.
