Dino Trails Day at the Beneski Museum of Natural History
Long before there were towns or farms, dinosaurs walked through the mud flats of the Connecticut River Valley, leaving footprints that turned to stone. At Dino Trails Day, explore how these tracks help us understand changes in land and life over millions of years. A guided visit and scavenger hunt at the Beneski Museum highlight local fossils studied around the world. How can a footprint last for over 190 million years? This event can spark curiosity and strengthen a connection to the land through the lens of geology and paleontology.
