The Museum of Culpeper History is a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to three goals; to attract ... to engage ... and to educate. The purpose of the Museum of Culpeper History is primarily to collect, preserve and exhibit significant artifacts and memorabilia reflecting the people, places and events that shaped the character of Culpeper and the surrounding area. Collaterally, the Museum will serve both as a resource for students of all ages to research and explore history, geography, math and economics, as well as, provide an interactive resource and program oriented organization boosting tourism and the local economy. Culpeper's history is rich and diverse with the potential of becoming a powerful resource for education, economic development, and enhanced quality of life and community pride. The Museum has built a remarkable facility that honors and preserves the people, places and events that have shaped the destiny of this rural Virginia region. To stop there, however, could relegate the museum to mediocrity, just another small museum displaying an interesting assortment of artifacts. A state-of-the-art exhibit plan, creative programming and an aggressive marketing plan, will enable the Museum to attract, engage and educate all-corners, establishing an unparalleled experience without comparison in a 100 mile radius.

The Fairbanks Museum Radon Education Program is designed is to educate the public about the nature of radon and radioactivity, radon's occurrence in the environment, its potential health risks, and methods for dealing with those risks on a family level. Where does Radon come from? Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas formed in the earth's crust by the radioactive decay of Uranium-238. Uranium is very common in some of the types of rocks found in Vermont. As Uranium decay radioactively it emits two types of high- energy particles, alpha and beta particles. Alpha particles can damage the delicate, unprotected cells of lung tissue. How does it enter your home? Radon is an odorless, tasteless, colorless gas which can move freely through spaces in the rocks and soil and into cracks in the foundations of buildings. Radon can accumulate in buildings which are closed or that have poor air circulation. It mixes with the air we breathe and enters our lungs without our knowledge. For most of us, radon is the source of our greatest exposure to harmful radiation during our life times.
