Oh my word! We are absolutely blown away by all the amazing families who came out to join us yesterday for our Dino Adventure!! Over the course of just three short hours, over 950 people came out to share in our adventure, play games, learn about rocks and fossils, dig for fossils, and check our our big dinosaurs. This has been our largest event yet!
