Smithsonian exhibit comes to Warm Springs

The Smithsonian Institution's American Museum of Natural History "Whatever Happened to Polio?" has a new home in Warm Springs, Georgia.  Dr. Peter Salk, son of Jonas Salk who created the Salk Vaccine said that is was appropriate for the exhibit to come to Warm Springs. "It's so meaningful for it to come to Warm Springs," he said. Warm Springs is where polio eradication efforts first began in the 1930s under the leadership of President Franklin D. Roosevelt who founded the March of Dimes.

The exhibit is open to the public and is located at Roosevelt Warm Springs. There is no admissions charge for this wonderful and educational experience.

Tours are Monday - Saturday 10:00am - 3:00pm

Please call 706-655-5010 for more information.
