Liz Doane, Program Director – Ahoy, friends! I just sailed in on the good ship JUPITER and can’t wait for all the exciting adventures we are going to have! My adventurous career has taken me from Minnesota to all over the world working in traditional and outdoor environmental education, and I am excited to utilize the skills I learned along the way (and my love for dinosaurs) right here at the 
Funhouse! I have lived on Orcas Island since the Spring of 2016 and have truly grown to love the community we have here. In all my travels, I’ve never seen one quite like it. I invite you all to come aboard as I embark on my most exciting journey yet; providing a safe and stimulating environment where all can learn, discover, and create! Liz@thefunhouse.org
