Daily summer programming at the Royal Tyrrell Museum begins June 28.

The museum will have a variety of different summer programs starting up at the end of June with something for everyone from children to seniors. You can learn how to make fossil casts, discover the seven wonders of the badlands on a guided hike, try your luck at excavating a simulated dig site or prospect for fossils.

“The programs really teach you a lot, and bring a new element of fun to the museum,” said Marketing & Media Coordinator Leanna Mohan.

The museum is also planning on releasing a new movie that is still in editing called Passion for the Past.

“Being a local, I found it really interesting as it follows the scientists who work here and what research they’re doing,” said Mohan.

Another new program coming this summer will be Secrets of the Lost Quarry, which is multi-media journey to experience the badlands and discover how scientists find fossil treasure.

The four outdoor programs this summer will include Dinosite, Excavate it, Seven Wonders of the Badlands and Junior Dinosaur Explorers.
