Join a naturalist as we dig deeper into the role of a paleontologist. What do they do? What do they look for? Participants will have the chance to be paleontologists themselves as they learn about prehistoric wildlife. Participants will play some games, get crafty and do some scientific work!
Two sessions will be offered:
Session 1: 10:30 a.m.-noon
Session 2: 1-2:30 p.m.
Fee: Free!
