Meet the visitor services manager at the Fountain Hills Discovery Center

From trail work to the stars, Michael Weber fuels his passion for public education

It’s been a couple of decades since Michael Weber went camping and hiking with his dad in McDowell Mountain Regional Park. Back then, Dynamite Road was still unpaved and the land wasn’t yet a preserve.
