The state room is dedicated to a tribute to Fred Rogers and the PBS children's television show Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood.

HACC students taking civil engineering designed the roads, trolley and landscaping. HACC culinary arts students in pastry arts this semester baked and decorated gingerbread houses for the Neighborhood and Neighborhood of Make Believe.

The state room and additional rooms with holiday themes at the Governor's residence are open to the public Monday through Thursday, 10am to 2pm until December 18.
