If you have never joined us in either the field or the lab during our "dino" project, you are in for a real treat! Many of you may have walked around your local or national Museums of Natural History; you may have even seen folks working on fossils. This summer, however, you will get the opportunity to work in an authentic paleontology preparation lab, but be on the other side of the viewing windows! Our PIT project's summer sessions will be located in the Foster Paleontology Lab, Museum of Geology, South Dakota School of Mines and Technology in Rapid City. Nebraska National Forest staff, along with the Museum of Geology Lab Preparation Manager will train and work with everyone who is selected - no experience necessary - and you will come away with not only some great memories and stories, but with a handful of new skills! Please note however, that we will only be recruiting until we hit our target numbers, so apply today - see you this summer!

Please note: Strict COVID-19 protocols will be followed; including the wearing of masks.
