Opening day at our local museum display. My 12 year old daughter, Lisa, standing beside Mark Murphy's 90 pound Campo.
The Haldimand county museum is located 45 minutes south of Hamilton, Ontario, Canada.
Special Thanks to fellow I.M.C.A. members who have gone out of their way to help in this educational endeavour, by doing side walk astronomy & presentations on Meteorites over the years. I felt this venue would reach more of the masses at there leisure. So far, the local high school has been involved & I have met people that have travelled over a hour just to see & ask questions about meteorites. So, Thanks to all.
Here's a clip from a local newspaper:
To learn more, plan to visit the museum and see this exciting exhibit exploring meteorites, space and the new frontier. The exhibit is on until April 15th. Special thanks to Ray Watts and the International Meteorite Collectors Association for the loan of the meteorites and expertise's (sic). The museum is open Monday - Friday from 10:00 am to 4:30 pm. For further information on this exhibit, please contact the museum at 905-772-5880 or by email: krichardson@haldimandcounty.on.ca"
