Along with artist John Giannotti's sculpture, a major focus of the day's events was the site where the Hadrosaurus foulkii fossil was discovered in 1858. A tent was set up at Hadrosaurus memorial park (above, left) to shelter visitors from the day's rain. Butch Brees, manager of the Hadrosaurus discovery site, was on hand to explain its memorial markers and point out the site in the ravine below where the world's first dinosaur skeleton was excavated 145 years ago.

Adding a further touch of color at various Dino Day venues were items such as these dinosaur cookies and a prehistoric centerpiece made by Carol Malcarney for the lounge in the Baptist Church on Kings Highway for Dino Day's staff, speakers and special guests.
