Happy New Year from the Atomic Heritage Foundation, and best wishes for 2017! We hope you spent the holidays doing what you love. Perhaps you played some ice hockey, as the hardy Los Alamos Ranch School students enjoyed doing in their shorts on Ashley Pond in 1924.

This year we have an ambitious agenda of interpretive and educational resources for the new Manhattan Project National Historical Park. Our goals include developing new “Ranger in Your Pocket” programs on the Manhattan Project at Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, Chicago and Berkeley; interviewing dozens of Manhattan Project veterans; and publishing oral histories with Hispanos and Pueblos who worked on the project. 

Special thanks to the dozens of donors who came through for AHF at the end of the year. With your support, we can make great progress in preserving and interpreting this history.
