June 22 @ 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Event Series Event Series (See All)

Drop in any time between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m. for a hands-on kids’ activity!

Attention, (junior) geology enthusiasts! Join us for an exciting series of touch and learn sessions on geology. Master Naturalist and geology/earth sciences educator Jamie Watson will be leading these drop-in sessions the 2nd and 4th Saturdays of the month from April through July.

Geology is everywhere! In June, we’ll explore sedimentation and sedimentary rocks – including Glacial Lake Missoula sediments! We’ll also dive into arrowheads and the effects of rivers and streams on sediment transportation and deposition. Bring your map from April’s activity (we’ll have more to pass out, too) , so you can add in the locations of the different kinds of rocks we’re learning about and go see them for yourself!

Cost: Free with membership / cost of admission.
