Mon.–Fri., June 23–27, 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m.
Attention future paleontologists! Create miniature dinosaurs and plants to inhabit
a prehistoric diorama of your own creation. Campers learn about many types of
dinosaurs and the time periods they lived in. Hands-on experiences make learning
fun! Inspiration will be drawn from field trips to the Natural History Museum and
Botanical Gardens.
