Research in the pocket forest
Staff are selected for their background in
science, experience with kids and their ability to make science fun.
Most are university students in the sciences.
One of the highlights of our camp is its proximity to
dinosaur bone beds. These campers are excavating one of these beds.
Entomology, or the study of insects, is
one of our fields of research.
Mapping an archaeological site
Using models helps us to understand
sedimentology.
These campers are carrying a large fossil excavated
near the camp.
The river affords a welcome break on a hot day.
Our campers really enjoy themselves.
