REGINA — DiNovember is back, as the Royal Saskatchewan Museum (RSM) gets set to celebrate all things dinosaur.
Dinosaur lovers of all ages will be visiting the T.rex Gallery, home of Scotty, the world's largest Tyrannosaurus rex, and taking part in fun-filled activities and programs.
Throughout DiNovember, visitors are encouraged to wear their best dinosaur gear while at the museum. Visitors can also pick up a DiNovember scavenger hunt to complete as they wander through the exhibits and look for special DiNovember fun facts. Complete the scavenger hunt and receive a special DiNovember sticker.
"DiNovember is a special time at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum, featuring a roaring look at our province's dinosaurs, fossils, history and palaeontology," Parks, Culture and Sport Minister Alana Ross said. "This is a great opportunity to get a glimpse into our province's past and take in the museum's world-class exhibits, interactive displays, and fantastic educational programs."
With fun-filled activities, programs and amazing exhibits for guests of all ages, there is always an adventure waiting around the next corner at the RSM.
