Attendees also are treated to games like pin-the-tail on the dinosaur, duck duck dino, and hot potato/dino-egg to keep things moving, as well as an onsite scavenger hunt featuring real fossils of dinosaur tracks, ancient bird tracks, a mammoth bone (when available), and more. all treasures from our great state of Utah! The presenters of this event are S. K. Wenger (author of Chicken Frank, Dinosaur), Amy & Greg Newbold (author & illustrator team of If DaVinci Painted a Dinosaur) and Julia Lyon (author of A Dinosaur Named Ruth).
