Beltzville State Park has several types of Devonian fossils that can be found throughout the park.  Come explore and learn all about these amazing marine creatures from the past. Join the Park Educator and special guest speaker, Aaron Bierly, a PA Geologic Scientist from the DCNR Bureau of Topographic and Geologic Survey to go on a "fossil hunt" in the restricted Army Corps of Engineers spillway area.  Here we will "dig" and search for 390 million year old fossils.  Wearing sturdy shoes is a must!  You are welcome to bring magnifying lenses, small brushes, and small hand garden shovels.  Program is rain/shine.  Limited space is available so register in advance.  Please bring along water, light lunch, sunscreen/protection, and bug spray.

Meeting at Environmental Interpretive Center at 11:00 am.  Will have an indoor presentation followed by an outdoor hands on experience.

If you need any special accommodations to participate in this or any other park event, please contact the office at 610-377-0045 or email the park educator at beltzvillesp@pa.gov.
