We’ve received the following Outreach Request:
Aldersgate United Methodist Church
1320 Umstead Rd #2002
Durham, NC 27712
A “Science Saturday” event is being held for the public and the church’s cub scout pack (#400) at this church on Saturday, March 14th, and they are looking for an NCFC member to come by and put together a paleontology table for the visitors. They are looking for a table that talks about the basics of fossil formation and fossiliferous formations, while also showing off some of these fossils as well. They specifically mentioned dinosaurs, but other fossils will likely be perfectly fine as well! Visitors of all ages are planned to attend, but the primary focus will be for younger guests of an elementary school age. The event runs from 1 P.M. to 5 P.M with set-up starting at 12 P.M. and the table will tentatively be set-up under an outdoor shelter alongside a makeshift “dig pit” for the cub scout pack.
Any members interested in this Outreach opportunity, please contact Tony Shaver at <outreach@ncfossilclub.org>
Thanks!
