Utah Field House Dinosaur Museum

Vernal

May 10th, 1:00pm

The Utah Field House of Natural History Park Museum is Utah’s newest dinosaur museum and dinosaur park. New exhibits and displays cover the 22,000-square-foot facility, inside and out. Vivid murals and tile floors help visitors connect geological time to real-time places in Vernal. Life-size replicas of dinosaurs peek into the museum through windows looking out onto the new Dinosaur Gardens. Curious visitors, both young and old, can do their own investigating with books, models, puzzles, and bones and chisels. Try your hand at fossil hunting and see how a real paleontologist works.

We will be going on a guided tour with a picture scavenger hunt and word puzzles you can complete in the dinosaur garden.

Pioneer Village

Provo

June 7th, 12:00pm

Experience the life of the pioneers as you walk back into the early days of Provo when the settlers of 1849 had to survive in isolation.  The Pioneer Village contains the original structures built by these pioneers, including the Turner Cabin, the Haws Cabin, the Loveless Home, a granary, school, woodshop, corn crib, outhouse, and more.  The Pioneer Village also contains an ox shoeing stock, various pioneer wagons, a working blacksmith shop, authentic mercantile general store, pioneer games for the children, and a wide variety of historical artifacts and tools.

This Pioneer Village represents early Provo, a frontier community existing in large part in isolation.  The pioneers’ very survival depended on their own skills and the support of their neighbors and friends.  What they ate, they grew; what they wore, they made; and what they needed, they manufactured or they did without.  Things were used and reused; little was discarded or thrown away.
