Archaeology Day: Mock Dig for Kids

Saturday, October 11 2025

This program is part of the ongoing activities happening at the Ohio History Center for Archaeology Month. Other activities happening in October include tours and talks. For this mock dig happening in the dig pit area behind the OHC auditorium we need help making sure that children are following instructions set by the archaeologist Sara Polk and to assist when needed with actual digging and shifting of sand.

Please wear clothes suited for outside work and this may require some light lifting and bending down to help!
