The Dig
“We can’t do anything but NOT stop digging!”
There are many wonderful moments that just happen at the museum (one of the joys of working there) and this was one just last week. Twin brothers had helped out with creating some ornaments for our wreath that will be part of the 12th Annual Christmas Tree Auction this coming Sunday and then went back to exploring in the museum. They quickly dug into the sand in the “Dig Site” exhibit and were very focused on finding all of the bones that were buried there. They combined their efforts and mixed their styles and had uncovered about half of them after a few minutes when I heard “we can’t do anything but not stop digging!” And not stop they did until all six corners and the bottom of the sand box were unearthed and all the bones recovered.

We’re very excited about this. Our Summer Enrichment series of programs starts the Tuesday after the 15th Anniversary celebration – June 19th. This will be a six week series, Tuesdays through Fridays, of fun drop-in activities ranging from water play, science explorations, art projects and build-it challenges. These programs are free with admission or membership to the museum.
