ANIMAL COLLECTIONS, Sch D, Part III Line 1AIn accordance with industry practice, the Foundation's collections of marine animals are not capitalized and recognized as assets in the statements of financial position. The Foundation holds its collections for public exhibition, education and research rather than for financial gain. It protects, cares for, preserves and keeps its collections unencumbered. Additionally, it is impracticable to attempt to assign values to the collection because the animals have certain attributes, such as species, sex, age, breeding potential, and relationship to others in the ecosystem that make it difficult to determine an objective basis for valuation. The value of collection items purchased by the Foundation is reported in the statement of activities as collections. Contributed collection items are not reflected in the financial statements.
EXEMPT PURPOSE, Sch D, part III line 4Mission: The mission of the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center is to inspire conservation of the marine environment through education, research, and sustainable practices. About Us: In 2020, the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center celebrated 34 years of conservation through education as it continues to carry out its mission to teach people about the marine environment. After many years of planning and hard work, the Virginia Marine Science Museum (VMSM) opened with much fanfare on June 14, 1986 and was a resounding success from the very beginning. During the first three months, more than 100,000 visitors came to the museum, exceeding attendance projections by an astonishing 45 percent. Visitors took a journey of water through three different habitats. Although many museums typically experience a dramatic drop-off in attendance after the first year or two, VMSM enjoyed steady attendance. Based on the museums success, the staff began planning in 1990 for Phase II, a project that would triple the size of the facility to 120,000 square feet with two building and more than 45 acres of land. A key step in the expansion process was the Virginia Beach City Council approval in 1992 of $32.8 million from the Tourism Growth Investment Fund. After quietly working behind the scenes for more than a year, the Foundation publicly launching a $5 million capital campaign in 1994 to pay for the new exhibits. That same year, the U.S. Navy designated 50 acres of land on Owls Creek salt marsh, across from the Museum, as a protected Watchable Wildlife Area, the first area in Virginia to receive this designation. The expanded museum opened on June 14, 1996 exactly 10 years after the original opening. Highlights included the theater, which at the time was one of only a handful of IMAX 3D theaters in the nation. The new Ocean Pavilion and its 300,000-gallon aquarium with several species of sharks thrilled visitors, and the 70,000-gallon sea turtle aquarium provided close-up views of these endangered creatures. Visitors also delighted in the antics of harbor seals and river otters, and the new Owls Creek Marsh Pavilions at the end of an expanded nature trail emphasized marsh creatures and birds in the outdoor aviary. During 1996, more than 692,000 people visited the facility, which exceeded first year attendance projections of 650,000. Once again, the typical attendance peak and subsequent dramatic drop after the first two years did not occur; instead, the attendance has remained close to 600,000. The number of fulltime staff doubled, and with the new exhibits came many opportunities for expanded educational programming. In 2004, the facilitys name changed to Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center. Today, the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center is operated through a public-private partnership between the City of Virginia Beach and the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center Foundation. The City owns and maintains the Aquariums buildings and provides administrative support, while the Foundation procures and maintains the collection of animals and exhibits. The Foundation is also responsible for fundraising efforts and various scientific research, education, and conservations projects. Over 600,000 visitors from every state in the nation and many foreign countries visit annually to learn about the marine environment. Over time and with input from many sources, especially the strategic planning process, the staff developed an exciting plan for the Virginia Aquarium. Rather than expand again, the original building was transformed by replacing aging exhibits with habitats simulating ecosystems from around the world that were present during Virginias prehistory. The Restless Planet, a $25 million renovation, opened in 2009. The exhibit galleries features a Malaysian peat swamp boasting two Tomistoma crocodiles; a coastal desert similar to a Mediterranean coast; a 120,000 gallon walk-through Red Sea aquarium with spotted eagle rays and a zebra shark; and a volcanic area similar to the Komodo Islands in Indonesia, complete with Komodo dragons. The Foundation provided $9 million to this project. Also, in 2009, the Virginia Aquarium formed a partnership with a photography company as an additional source of revenue during guests visits. Guests are able to take souvenir photos prior to entering the Aquarium and exploring. At the end of their visit, they can purchase the photo as a keepsake memory of their trip. In 2015, this partnership was awarded to Photogenic and remains as such. The Virginia Aquarium continued its on-campus expansion with the May 30, 2014 opening of the Adventure Park at Virginia Aquarium. The joint venture between the Aquariums non-profit Foundation and the Outdoor Venture Group, the designers, builder, and operator of the park, features several ropes and zipline challenge courses for guests of all age and experience levels. As leaders in coastal and marine environmental conservation, research, and preservation, the Virginia Aquarium boat trips bring the ocean to you. Since 1989, our boat trips have been staffed by knowledgeable marine educators engaging in responsible viewing practices, research, and conservation. Our partnership with Rover Cruises began Feb. 14, 2015 and continues to this day, offering whale watching and dolphin boat trips, with some specialty tours. On February 26, 2015, the netting on the Aviary collapsed after a small snowstorm. After analyzing the total annual operating costs of the Aviary, the Aquarium chose to utilize the insurance funds for New Exhibits as part of the South Building renovation rather an rebuild the old structure. After the passing of one False gharial crocodile and the transport of another to a crocodile park in St. Augustine, Florida, the Aquarium was in search of new animals for the Restless Planet exhibit. Through months of hard work, the Aquarium procured two False gharial (Tomistoma) crocodiles from a Malaysian crocodile expert and brought them to Virginia Beach in the first permitted import of Tomistoma from a range country to the United States since 1974. Ralf and Sommer, named after Ralf Sommerlad, a renowned crocodilian expert, joined the Aquarium on October 31, 2015. The Aquariums success with reptiles continued, with staff discovering two hatchling Komodo dragons on exhibit on August 18, 2016. The baby dragons, Bejo and Kado, were the product of breeding between Teman, the male dragon, and the late female dragon, Jude. Jude, prior to her passing, dug an egg chamber on the exhibit, allowing the eggs to incubate and hatch, all without giving staff any indication. On September 18, 2016, the Chesapeake Bay Aquarium closed with a final dive in advance of renovation to the exhibit. This reimaging saw a change from the original blue walls and rockwork to a more natural design reminiscent of Kiptopeke State Park. The exhibit reopened on December 13, 2017 with the reintroduction of the tarpon. The project continued the public/private partnership with the City and Foundation. With the City investing $1.5 million and the Foundation paying $250,000 for the newly renovated Aquarium. One of our most visible and iconic areas, the harbor seal exhibit, received some special attention in early April 2018, as we renovated the seal pool and acrylic panes. Additional renovations to the Bay & Ocean Pavilion occurred June 2018 in the bathrooms in the lobby area and a complete redesign of the existing Caf. The restrooms acquired new energy efficient and water efficient fixtures, as well as low-flow toilets aimed at reducing the carbon footprint. The all-new Caf improved flow to ordering and paying for meals and a revamped menu! On World Autism Awareness Day April 2, 2019, the Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science announced a new partnership with KultureCity, an organization dedicated to helping businesses become more inclusive of guests with sensory processing disorders. As part of this new partnership, the Virginia Aquarium became certified as Sensory Inclusive by KultureCity. This certification includes staff training on sensory processing disorders and the best ways to help guests with them, creation of a social story to prepare guests with sensory processing disorders prior to their visit, creation of quiet zones, and acquisition of on-site resources. The Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center was closed March 19, 2020 June 14, 2020 due to the Covid19 pandemic that swept the country. In compliance with a phased opening plan set forth by the Governor of Virginia and consultation with City of Virginia Beach leadership, the Aquarium welcomed guests back starting June 19, 2020 (with Members-only visitation June 15 June 18, 2020). New safety measures and limited capacity requirements were implemented to help keep guests, staff, volunteers, and animals safe. During the closure, the Aquarium made the difficult decision to permanently close the Giant Screen Theater for movie showings. Other tempo
