The Potsdam Snack Pack Program is an all-volunteer organization that provides healthy snacks and lunch items to eligible students from pre-K to the high school level. During the school year, as many as 400 Potsdam students receive a minimum of eight food items on the weekends. The program also sponsors the annual Back to School Fair that provides free school supplies and other resources to local families.

North Country Children’s Museum
At the North Country Children’s Museum, we believe that learning is a hands-on, minds-on, interactive experience. With exhibits that celebrate the cultural and geographical resources of the North Country, you’ll find play areas and tinker spaces for all ages to get kids thinking, making, and doing. Build and balance in our Construction Zone or run the store in our Kids Co-Op and Bakery. Explore the Raquette River in our Adirondack Water Play exhibit or light up your mind with our STEAM Power everbright art wall and engineering lab. Our Playspace, especially designed for crawlers, toddlers and preschoolers, gets little ones moving with sensory and imaginative play. Come play and learn with us!
