Curiosity exists in all of us, whether we want to circle back to 200 million years ago or investigate and solve a modern mystery. Students in Winter Camp 2018-2019 learned about the history of our planet and how to excavate and preserve fossils during session one "We Dig Fossils". Session two of winter camp "Forensic Fun" explored the technology and chemistry used to help figure out clues of a mystery.
