VT Geosciences Museum Public Event: Paleo Unpack!

Wednesday August 26, 2015 5:00-7:30pm
Volunteers needed to help unload and unpack fossil samples collected by VT paleontologists working in the field this past summer. You may be handling parts of a new discovery!

Dr. Sterling Nesbitt and Dr. Michelle Stocker will give a presentation on their fieldwork and a brief training at the beginning of the work session, starting at 5:20.

Students from the Paleo Research Group will be on hand to assist volunteers with proper techniques. Kids should be over 7 and accompanied by an adult.
These are REAL FOSSILS from Africa and Arizona!
