July Event:\u00a0 Fossil Finding at Lilydale Park, St Paul<\/u><\/h2>\n

Date: Wednesday, July 22nd, 2009, 5:30pm-7pm<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our next event promises to be fun, entertaining, and educational all in one! Join us for an evening of fossil finding! Having been fossil hunting once in my life in Minnesota, I’m eager for another opportunity.\u00a0 According to the City of St Paul’s website, fossils are the preserved remains or traces of plants or animals. The conditions needed to preserve fossils occur very rarely in nature, so the fossil record is only a tiny fraction of the history of all living organisms.<\/p>\n

The word fossil comes from a Latin word meaning “to dig up.”\u00a0 Trace fossils, orichnofossils, include such things as footprints and trails. Burrows or borings made by animals such as worms, trilobites, and bivalves can also be preserved if they are filled with sediment and hardened into rock.<\/p>\n

About 450 millions years ago, much of Minnesota was under 100-150 feet of water. Come see fossilized remains of this ancient ocean.\u00a0 The “brickyards” is one of the best places to look for these fossils in the Twin Cities. Learn about the geological and cultural history of this unique area of St. Paul.<\/p>\n

A local\/organic meal will be provided!<\/p>\n

Location:<\/strong>\u00a0Lilydale Park,\u00a0950 Lilydale Road, St Paul, MN 55118<\/u><\/a><\/p>\n

Cost:<\/strong>\u00a0$10 for students, $12 for members, $18 for non-members.<\/p>\n

Information about our last event:<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

Our May event was “Integrated Pest Management for Home Gardening Practices.”\u00a0 IPM trainer Kevin Cavanaugh led a fascinating talk on the topic hands-on tour of St. Paul resident Debbie Meister\u2019s yard. Meister participated in a IPM workshop, had on-site assistance and journaled about her IPM practices during the 2008 growing season. Her yard became a case study for the MN Department of Agriculture and University of MN Extension. Every attendee received a copy of the book “Managing Pests in Landscapes and Homes.”\u00a0 Despite the cool temperatures, everyone had a great time. \u00a0<\/p>\n
