From dinosaurs to trilobites, Utah is world famous for its fossils. The Utah Friends of Paleontology (UFOP) is dedicated to public involvement in paleontology for the citizens of Utah. The only qualification for membership is an interest in fossils. Why rely on books and television to learn about Utah’s heritage when the Utah Friends of Paleontology offers hands-on experience? Learn about fossils and the science of paleontology through participation in local chapter activities including lectures, demonstrations, museum visits, field trips, excavations, laboratory work, and certification programs for paraprofessional training.

Anyone is welcome to attend meetings. The cost of becoming a member is modest, so we hope you will join us!

Feel free to contact Barb Benson, Castle Valley Chapter President, if you are interested in learning more.
