A NEW GROUP is being formed to support one of the Island’s most popular tourist attractions.
Members are being sought to become Friends of Dinosaur Isle, a new group that will support the work of the popular Sandown museum run by the Isle of Wight Council. As well as being part of a charitable trust to support the museum in its work, the friends of Dinosaur Isle will be part of a group that actively supports the Island’s geological heritage of world-wide significance.
With their close involvement in the working of the museum the friends of Dinosaur Isle will get exclusive previews to new exhibitions, behind the scenes tours of the museum and join with other friends in regular guided visits to areas of palaeontological and geological interest.
Other benefits for friends will be the opportunity to attend the annual dinner and reception at the museum, as well as the chance to become involved in the work of the museum as a volunteer. A regular FODI (Friends of Dinosaur Isle) newsletter will keep friends up to date with the latest developments at the museum and any new exciting acquisitions that have been made. For further information please contact Friends of Dinosaur Isle at Dinosaur Isle on 01983 404344.
