Dinosaurs After Dark

Amazing Autumn Season

An awesome Autumn still awaits families at Field Station Dinosaurs for programming features popular "Dinosaurs After Dark" experience and other family favorite Dino activities. Therefore, if you've enjoyed experiencing the dinosaurs in the day you're certainly going to love them at night!

 

While the weather is yet cooling, dinosaurs are, no doubt, always cool and the Field Station Dinosaurs for "Amazing Autumn" season! Upon a fantastic summer filled with exciting dinosaur activities that I enjoyed in the past with family and friends, I too recently enjoyed an evening with three and me of thrilling entertaining and educational program at the Field Station, the hugely popular, "Dinosaurs After Dark" experience.

It's one of the most popular activities of the Autumn season, "Dinosaurs After Dark," a spooky, funny adventure into a shadowy, prehistoric world. As the sun went down, I and three discovered that there's a T-Rex on the loose! A fearless Dinosaur Wrangler leads a Tyrannosaurus Hunt along the Field Station's darkened trails. The Dinosaur Troubadour hosted a Crazy Cretaceous Costume Party, a musical puppet show where staff paleontologists use the scientific method to determine the scariest festive costume of all. My son super excited to be a volunteered participator. The thrilling experience concludes with a fun dinosaur sing-a-long around a campfire with s'mores and hot chocolate! Can you believe that was my first campfire encounter?

And it's not too late for you to enjoy this grand, Autumn dinosaur adventure! However, I must admit, there were a few not-so-happy campers who complained of the extended wait time in between group activities, as well as lack of food to eat. Addition to the inclement, rainy weather.

Nonetheless, don't delay, get your tickets today and plan accordingly. The park doors open exactly at 6:45 pm, just in time to pick up your ticket and gather together in groups of 2 -3 or more. Thereafter, each group enters behind the gate and greeted by a certified Dinosaur Wrangler. The Dinosaur Wrangler then leads the groups, flashlights toting in hand onto the dinosaur trail in search of the T-Rex on the loose. But fair warning, you will never know who or what will spook you along the way.
