Saltwater Studies offers both secular and biblically-based events. For secular events, discussion will focus on biological information. Biblically-based events will open in prayer and discussion will include how we can see the character of God in Creation as discussed in Romans 1:20. These events close with a time of praise for God’s blessings during the field trip.
Join Saltwater Studies at Bone Valley Experience in Wauchula, Florida for a dry fossil dig! Participants will first learn about shark tooth identification before being provided with sieves and shovels to search the grounds for various fossils.
