We will be celebrating the 55th Anniversary of the establishment of the Florissant Fossil Beds on Saturday, August 24th. Save the date.

We will be having a variety of events during the day including our Annual Membership meeting. We are moving it earlier in the season to try to avoid questionable weather in October.

Other activates are planned for during the day. We will end the day with a banquet at The Nature Place in Florissant.
“Stay tuned for more info.”
