Can you Dig It????

Vancouver, BC - Are you up for the challenge?  Can you locate the hidden
treasure? On Saturday, August 20 from 1:00 to 3:00pm, the Fraser River
Discovery Centre team will be offering families the opportunity to discover
their inner Indiana Jones and uncover hidden treasures from the Fraser River
at a special venue, the new River District Centre located in southeast
Vancouver. 

Sifting through the sands of the mock archaeology site, families will
uncover a variety of objects during the Centre's popular family program, Can
You Dig It? Using real archaeological methods, visitors will be challenged
to interpret artifacts, re-fit replicas of ancient pottery and decode a
series of clues. Decipher the clues and discover the possible location of
the hidden treasure. 

So do you have what it takes to be an archaeologist?  Join us at the River
District Centre on August 20 from 1:00 to 3:00pm and find out. The River
District Centre, located at 8683 Kerr Street, is a dual purpose space that
showcases plans for the 130 acre River District project and also focuses on
building community through special events and activities.  Built and managed
by developer ParkLane Homes, it is open to the public daily from 11am to
6pm. 

The Fraser River Discovery Centre is an interpretive centre connecting
communities in discovery and celebration of the living, working Fraser
River. It is located at 788 Quayside Drive, New Westminster. The Discovery
Centre is open 10am to 4pm 7 days a week throughout the summer. Admission is
by donation for the exhibit galleries.
