Dozens of Scouts from Charlottesville visited the museum this weekend for a paleontology-themed sleepover! The Scouts participated in a variety of hands-on activities, as they learned what a paleontologist is and the type of skills paleontologists implement on a daily basis! The night also included a scavenger hunt, movie time, a pizza dinner, and - of course - a night sleeping among the dinosaurs!

Interested in having your Scouts, students or other group experience a museum sleepover? Contact the museum at discover@vmnh.virginia.gov or 276-634-4185 to learn about all of the possibilities we offer!
