The 4-week program will be held on Saturdays between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. Prehistoric Marshall County will be a hands-on experience for kids of all ages. The topic for the first event on Jan. 28 is “Skulls and Stories.” We will share various animal skulls and tooth samples and learn lots of information about diet and habitats. Participants will receive a “Passport to Discovery” booklet. Each week they will be given a picture to add to their passport.
