1. Is there a difficult hike involved that could be difficult for older persons or little children? +++ No hiking - we drive to the fossil creek and hunt for fossils there.
2. Are all ages invited? +++ No age problem. Parents need to watch there kids that’s all.
3. Do they need to “pre-register” by emailing you? +++ Yes or phone and pay there so we can make booklets and know if we have enough families we need 8 or more.
4. Will there be a limited number, or are you pretty open? +++ Any number is OK. Is it weather dependent?
5. Will you notify people, due to bad weather or other issues? +++ Yes. If bad weather we will cancel so we need everyone's phone number.
6. If some people can’t come, can they pay a little something and get the handbook, so they could possibly go on their own another time? +++ Yes. The booklet Is $8.00 = $2 S&H. Russ & Tricia McGlenn Cell 805 588 3353

We are SO bummed that we can not go to this. We just heard and unfortunately have other plans that we can not break so late in the game. I am going to order the book from them so we can do this on our own as a family or put together a Family Fossil Hunt with other families. I am trying to find another family that will be going so I can pick their brain when they come back and get ideas on how it was ran. If anyone goes, can they give me a call?
