Summer Outreach!

Parades were always my favorite part about summer - sitting along the parade route just waiting for candy or small trinkets to be thrown your way. Then once it was thrown running like crazy to get as much as possible before anyone else. When candy is involved all the rules are out the window, so there was always lots of pushing and running. After the parade, giant stomach aches from all the delicious candy that we were told not to eat because it would ruin lunch (we never listened).
The Museum of Natural History staff and volunteers will be visiting several cities over the summer, and participating in the town’s local events.
Saturday June 23 – Hog Wild Days parade in Hiawatha at 10am
Friday July 13 – Tiffin Fest parade at 6pm
Saturday July 14 – Tiffin Fest at the UI Dig Box from 11am-5pm
Saturday July 21 – Solon Beef Days parade at 10am
All these events are free and open to the public. Get ready to catch lots of candy!!
