Spirit of Adventure Community Presentation
S.C. Johnson & Son Inc. has been a company steeped in family tradition with a sense of adventure for 5 generations.  Their new Fortaleza Hall building stands next to the world famous Frank Lloyd Wright designed company international headquarters.  Spherical in shape and made primarily of glass, Fortaleza Hall houses a full-size twin-engine S-38 amphibious plane suspended to simulate it in flight which can be viewed by all passers-by.  "This building is intended to inspire us, to be a special place to remind us of our sense of adventure," said chairman and chief executive officer Fisk Johnson, the fifth-generation leader of the company.

Lori Schneider echoes that spirit of family & adventure as she tells tales of climbing with her father Neal, culminating with her ascent of Mt. Everest in May of 2009.  Lori will present in the Golden Rondelle Theater, originally built as the SC Johnson Pavilion at the New York World’s Fair in 1964.  After the fair closed, the Golden Rondelle was dismantled and its steel framework was shipped back to Racine, where it was re-designed by Frank Lloyd Wright’s School of Architecture.  Join Lori on the amazing SC Johnson Campus and renew YOUR sense of adventure!
