Fossil Finds

2003 - Aurora Fossil Festival

Four members of the club made the trip to Aurora, North Carolina over Memorial Day weekend 2003. Michael McCloskey, Jayson Kowinsky, Amy Lore and Paul Murdoch each did a great job in representing the club. Mike and Paul were the featured speakers at the Aurora Fossil Museum and have been invited back to present their programs again at next year's festival. Jayson and Amy brought down several tables worth of fossils ranging in age from the "recent" Yorktown to the "ancient" Devonian. Their beautiful trilobite fossils were a hit with the many folks who stopped in to see the display. 

The club's first official appearance at the event was a great success! Hopefully the club will participate somehow in the event in the years ahead and will build upon its initial success. 

Enjoy the pictures taken by Jayson and Amy of the CMMFC's fossil table below:
