Come travel to the Jurassic times with Mad Science! We will get deep and have a real life big dig to see what we can discover! Campers will excavate fossils and examine big bones to learn all about dinosaurs and different animals that may or may not be around today! Using different instrument and tools, we will find ancient artifacts such as arrowheads, coins, and jewelry that will help us understand how items ware over time. Using the process of mummification, we will learn different ways to preserve items!

This camp will include tons of make and take home projects such as fossil reproductions and time capsules!

Each camper will also receive a Mad Science Lab Coat and Goggles!
