Bentley’s paleontologist trip of a lifetime!

Donation protected
We are doing some fundraising for an amazing, once in a lifetime, father/son experience that was “awarded to Bentley”!! 
Please help if you can as The Award is steeply discounted but still costing $800. In addition, they need funds for plane travel and a few supplies for the trip.
The Bishop Museum of Science and Nature, with the support of the Toomey Foundation for Natural Sciences, put together a Fossil Expedition trip to the Nebraska Badlands this summer. Bentley will get to experience what a real Paleontologist does; dig for fossils, learn how to jacket fossils, and may even get to keep what they find. A dream come true for a dinosaur enthusiast and wannabe Paleontologist. This is a trip packed full of education along with father and son bonding. In the words of Bentley: “I would like to go on this trip because I have wanted to be a Paleontologist since I was little. I think that going on a real life dig expedition would help me better understand what it is like to be a Paleontologist. I know it will help me decide if being a Paleontologist is right for me. I have always wanted to get up close and personal with real fossils to study them. Being able to dig up fossils from millions of years ago and study them today would be a dream come true!”
