**We have received some requests from the Aurora Fossil Museum to assist with their upcoming museum events in the coming months. As a way to partner with the Aurora Fossil Museum, participating in these events and assisting the AFM as a representative of the NCFC will count towards outreach for our organization as well, so it could be a fun way to get started with some basic outreach type events predominantly in the eastern part of the state!**

The events / locations are as-follows (Exact times are not currently known, if interested please contact the museum):

- Museum Volunteer Day at the Aurora Fossil Museum - September 12th, 2026
  - This will be a day where volunteers would help with miscellaneous tasks the museum needs to remain operational (cleanup, ect).

- National Fossil Day at the Aurora Fossil Museum - October 24th, 2025
  - This is one of the museum’s biggest events outside of the North Carolina Fossil Festival, and volunteers can be used in a number of areas.

**If you would like to sign up to assist with these events, please contact the museum’s Outreach Coordinator Dorothy Sadler at [dorothy@aurorafossilmuseum.org](mailto:dorothy@aurorafossilmuseum.org), and please inform me (Tony Shaver) at \<[outreach@ncfossilclub.org](mailto:outreach@ncfossilclub.org?subject=Outreach%20Notice)\> to let us know you will be assisting the AFM. Thank you very much!**
