    The Domes are a city treasure and need to be saved. During the winter I take my grandson there at least a couple times each month . Sadly, even with the efforts of a dedicated staff, the exhibits are not up to their previous standards. The funding cuts are apparent and I wonder if the decision has already been made to tear down the Domes.
