About The Lewis and Clark Interpretive Association (contd.)
Portage Cache Store
LCIA's profits from the Portage Cache Store:
• purchase interpretive and educational items for the Lewis & Clark
Interpretive Center
• fund seminars from noted Lewis & Clark scholars
• purchase research materials for Center staff
• help sponsor the annual Lewis and Clark Festival in Great Falls
Your web purchases and membership allow us to fund many necessities for the
Center that federal dollars cannot.
Funding assistance to The Lewis and Clark National Historic Trail Interpretive
Center
In the 2004-2005 fiscal year, our Board of Directors voted to fund $22,000.00
in projects at the Interpretive Center. A few of these items are:
• School group activities (printing materials and activity products for
over 6000 students who visit the Center)
• Camps for school age children during the holiday break and summer break
• Honoraria and travel for guest speakers
• High school interns for summer months
• Exhibit enhancement and procurement
• Interpretive training, props and texts
