 The National Audubon Society (Audubon Pennsylvania) and the Philadelphia Outward Bound School are joining forces to save and sustain a vital part of our natural heritage in a unique partnership. Their missions converge in the East Park section of Philadelphia's Fairmount Park - just blocks from the neighborhood of Strawberry Mansion - where a century-old abandoned reservoir has become a unique wildlife sanctuary and an important stopover location for birds migrating along the Atlantic Flyway. 

The Discovery Center serves as the base of operations for the Philadelphia Outward Bound School, a chartered affiliate of the nation's preeminent provider of active learning expeditions. Outward Bound maintains long-established programs in over 60 public, charter and private schools in the Philadelphia area and currently serves more than 6,000 students annually, changing lives through challenge and discovery. In its new home, the Philadelphia Outward Bound School attracts a greater number of community and regional partners to its world-renowned leadership development programs. The Discovery Center expands Outward Bound's reach across the Delaware Valley region to the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, PA and NJ state forests and parks.

The National Audubon Society uses The Discovery Center as a facility for research and science-based conservation projects and educational programs throughout the Philadelphia region. Audubon engages individuals and communities by offering the resources and tools necessary to analyze, preserve and restore out natural environment. Their education programs challenge both young people and adults through hands-on exploration of the natural world in their own backyards and neighborhoods. The Discovery Center also allows visitors to connect to Audubon's national and international conservation initiatives, serving as a major migratory stopover on the Atlantic Flyway for over 100 species of birds and as a premier destination for bird watching throughout the region.
