Come learn about the recent discovery of an Early Cretaceous bone bed at the M-NCPPC Dinosaur Park near Laurel Maryland, and see some of the latest finds!

JP Hodnett, M-NCPPC Paleontologist and Program Coordinator for Dinosaur Park, will discuss some of the recent fossils from the excavation between 2021 and present.

This meeting of the NHSM Fossil Club will take place in person. If you’d prefer to attend virtually, email the club coordinator (mfalk@marylandnature.org) for a Zoom link and passcode.

Natural History Society of Maryland’s Fossil Club is a group of novice and more experienced collectors who meet to exchange knowledge and help with fossil identification, discuss fossil locations, as well as other fossil related topics. Monthly meetings are held the first Wednesday of every month and are open to all, although non-members are asked to donate $5.

If you are a fossil enthusiast, please consider joining (https://www.marylandnature.org/club-membership/). NHSM membership is $35 for individuals, $50 for families. The Natural History Society of Maryland is a volunteer-led non-profit organization, so the fee you pay will go directly to support the programs, the nature collections, and the building that make this kind of nature education possible. Learn more about NHSM Clubs: https://youtu.be/pIA7naRjXws
