Come learn about paleontology, the scientific study of ancient life through the fossils of animals and plants. We will craft our own field journal to record the info we unearth throughout the program; including basic tools, info about some super awesome dinosaurs and our observations during our hands-on discovery experience. Participants will be paired up and need to be able to read and write to research specific info about their assigned dinosaur.

Registration required. Must be ages 7 & Up.
