Game time! From practicing in the meadow to the pitchers mound, the DelMS dino is always game day ready.
Thank you @Wilm Blue Rocks for inviting us onto the field.

Gneiss throw, Dino! 🦖

It’s okay parents, we know we aren’t just your kids’ happy place. 😉 We see you “Big Kids” too.

We`re sad to hear about the @acadnatsci closing their museum at the end of September. As another regional natural history museum, we have partnered with the Academy for reciprocal membership visits, collections and research initiatives, and more. The closing of the Academy`s museum is a reminder that museums rely on the support of guests, donors, volunteers, and so many others.
