Have you found something that could be a fossil, artifact, shard of pottery that you would like to have identified?   Then you should come speak to the experts at the Artifact and Fossil Road Show Monday May 5 at the Heritage Center in downtown Vero Beach.

Between 6:00 p.m. and 9:00 p.m. you can view local collections, a stone tool technology display and other exhibits from Florida’s deep past. Three of the leading scientists will be there to answer your questions and help you with fossils or artifacts you have found: Florida State Museum of Natural History paleontologist Dr. Richard Hulburt and Mercyhurst University archaeologists Dr. Andy Hemmings and Dr. Jim Adovasio. All three are currently involved with the Vero Man excavation in progress behind the county administration building.  The dig and the Road Show are sponsored by the Old Vero Ice Age Sites Committee (OVIASC). Admission is free.

For additional information please contact OVIASC representatives Randy Old at 584-3424, Sandra Rawls at 778-5274 or Dick Kerr at 231-4691.
