Why Does the Dinosaur Discovery Need Volunteers?
Admission fees collected at SGDS are placed back into operating costs of the museum. Your help in volunteering can help offset these costs as well as providing museum patrons and yourself with many unique experiences.

Our Mission Statement:
The mission statement of SGDS is to research, preserve, and exhibit the fossil resources and story for the benefit, education, and enjoyment of the community, the general public, and the scientific world.
