Dinosaurs at The Garden

Saturday May 17, 2008
Huntsville is know for the Space & Rocket Center, Space Camp and the Saturn V and all other things connected with the future. Whenever Huntsville looks to the past, it's usually no further back than the Civil War. However, thanks to the Huntsville Botanical Garden, Huntsville is going way back...all the way back to prehistoric times when they bring the Dinosaur UpRoar, presented by TOC and Redstone Federal Credit Union, to the Garden from March 15th through July 15th 2008. This unique exhibit features over 20 life-sized dinosaur models in a display throughout the Garden. The exhibition consists of more than 30 pieces including real fossilized plants and bones, a 20 foot Astrodon, a 4 foot long Arthropleura (a giant centipede), a 30 foot long Parasaurolophus, and much more. Here's a sneak peek of some of the fascinating and child-made displays throughout the Garden.
