Fossil Man Goes To Camp

Fossil-Man Newell Randall was busy this summer along some of Virginia’s rivers exposing young people to the marine fossils beneath their feet. He spent 3 days in June along the James River teaching campers from Middle Peninsula/Tidewater counties at Jamestown 4-H Camp. The campers were from a six county area – Charles City, New Kent, King William, King & Queen, Essex and Middlesex. A day in August he taught students at River Camp on the Mattaponi River sponsored by the Mattaponi Pamunkey Rivers Association (MPRA).   These outdoor interactive classrooms were a relaxing setting that made learning fun.
