The Sherman Museum Dino Academy Registration Now Open
Registration is now open for The Sherman Museum DINO ACADEMY. The hands-on workshop for children ages 6 – 12 is intended to provide a fun, educational experience as part of the museums’ summer program DINO DAYS. The Academy will be held July 12, 13 and 14 from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
“DINO ACADEMY gives the kids a fun opportunity to touch and feel the type of casts and fossils that paleontologists get to work with every day”, Executive Director, Dan Steelman stated. Participants will discuss a different topic daily. Tuesday will be “Monsters of the Deep”, Wednesday is “Prehistoric Skies” and Thursday is, “Giants of the Land”. Children are able to attend one day or all three. The cost will be $15.00 for one day, $25.00 for two days, and $40.00 for all three days.

A snack will be provided mid-morning.
