SUMMARY:Hunting Dinosaur Fossils in the Bighorn Basin!
DESCRIPTION:Date: Tuesday\, September 16\nTime: 6:00 p.m. – 7:30 p.m.\nLocation: Montana Natural History Center\nCost: $15 for MNHC members\, $20 for non-members\n(Children 17 and under free with ticketed adult.) \nREGISTER HERE!\nIf you’re a fan of dinosaurs\, this evening program is for you! \nMNHC has partnered with Elevation Science Institute to prepare and conserve dinosaur fossils collected by their paleontologists and citizen-scientists each summer in southern Montana. These fossils come from the world-famous Morrison Formation of southern Montana\, rocks dating back over 150 million years! \nIt has been a record year for the team from Elevation Science Institute. Join Jason Poole to hear the latest from this summer’s field work digging up dinosaur bones in Montana’s Bighorn Basin\, some of which will be exposed over the next few months at the Montana Natural History Center before your very eyes! \nDrinks and light refreshments/snacks provided. \nInstructor: Jason C. Poole has worn many hats\, Adjunct Professor of Paleontology\, Scientific Illustrator\, art teacher\, and Paleontology field instructor. Jason has excavated dinosaurs on three continents\, including Africa\, South and North America. Paralititan\, Dreadnoughtus and Suuwassea are three dinosaurs worked on by Poole\, all were new to science when discovered and two of which are supermassive titanosaurs. Poole is also a Paleontological Artist who has published in National Geographic and whose art work appears in many museum and private collections. Jason resides in Missoula\, Montana and can often be found sketching in the studio and the great outdoors. \nWhat’s the refund policy? \nThe course fee (minus a 25% administrative fee) is refundable if a cancellation is made up to 7 days before the event. No refunds will be issued for cancellations made after this deadline. See our full refund/cancellation policy here. \nDo I have to bring my printed ticket to the event? \nNope!
