SUMMARY:Dog Days of Summer
DESCRIPTION:Spend a pet-friendly summer day exploring how dogs help uncover the secrets of the past — and how that connects to real science and engineering. At the event, you and your pup can enjoy games, demonstrations, and a pup parade, alongside special archaeology-themed activities. Discover how trained dogs have assisted archaeologists in locating long-lost burial sites and ancient remains, using scent detection instead of heavy digging. Staff will describe how dogs’ super-sensitive noses reveal traces of decomposition and help map out potential dig sites. Kids and adults alike can learn how scientific observation, data recording, and careful planning go hand-in-paw to guide real archaeological work. Whether you want to parade your pup, meet archaeology dogs, or learn the STEM behind ancient-site detection — this event brings together friendly faces, curious minds, and wagging tails for a memorable summer afternoon.\nRegister HERE ( https://square.link/u/lfXdZADd )\n
