Fossil Dig at the Library

We’re bringing the dig to the David M. Hut Library! Experience paleontology for yourself at our mini fossil dig with REAL fossils to find and identify on August 7th at 3:30pm. Participants will “dig” through sand, rocks, and shells for micro- and small fossils namely from the mid-Cenozoic era, and work to identify what animal they belonged to while learning more about early life on our planet. Let’s get digging! This event is free and open to the public.
