Discovery Cube is giving Santa Clarita Valley families a chance to experience training exhibits designed to provide affordability, energy conservation and natural gas safety tips to residents.

SoCalGas made a donation of  $100,000 on Tuesday, which is set to help enhance Discovery Cube’s award-winning “Inspector Training Course” to show the role natural gas plays in keeping home energy affordable and safe, according to officials.

The $100,000 check will be used for Discovery Cube to put on multiple initiatives to bring STEM Education to life for the visitors, according to officials.

“Their mission is brought to life through the cornerstones of their four core initiatives, including: STEM Proficiency, Early Learning, Healthy Living and Environmental Stewardship,” said a Discovery Cube announcement. “This exhibit lets families become more familiar with the role natural gas plays in their everyday lives, and the importance of using gas in a safe and environmentally friendly way.”

Some of the demonstrations are designed to give families the chance to learn about natural gas safety and how energy conservation can address air pollution and to combat climate change, according to officials.

“The Inspector Training Course exhibit is a technologically groundbreaking scavenger hunt that teaches kids and parents about energy conservation and sustainability in their own homes,” officials said. “Visitors are outfitted with tablets and go on immersive quests with the opportunity to learn about: gas safety, energy efficiency, energy conservation and how gas, electricity and renewable energy work together.”
