Digging Dinosaurs With Burpee Museum

on Wednesday, July 7, 2010


Scott Williams, 1992 Stillman Valley High School graduate and Burpee Museum Director of Exhibits & Science, will discuss his lifelong interest of geology and paleontology, as well as his experience on the field crew that discovered Burpee’s famous Tyrannosaurus Rex, Jane.  Scott supervised the preparation of Jane’s skeleton.  During his visual and oral presentation, Scott will also discuss the 2005 expedition he planned and led in which a sub-adult Triceratops was discovered and the 2008 paleontological dig which resulted in the discovery of a large dinosaur bone bed.  A cast of an Apatosaurus skull will be on view during the week of the event. 
 Appropriate for all ages.  Drop-ins welcome!
