June 16: start times at 15:00 and 15:45.

First-come, first-served: 24 people per session. Please bring a smock or old shirt and prepare to get muddy!
Please note: you'll be working with small fossils so, for safety reasons, this activity is not appropriate for children younger than 5 years old. Thank you for your understanding.
