EASTEND — The interactive T.rex Discovery Centre located in Eastend, and home to the world's largest T.rex, opens for the season on Saturday, May 18.
Home of Scotty, visitors can get a closeup look at the world's largest Tyrannosaurus rex in the CN Gallery. Check out the Paleo Lab Experience, marine reptiles, prehistoric mammals, dinosaur fossils and much more.
In the Paleo Lab, visitors can discover new micro fossils in the dig stations or create unique ecosystems with the interactive topography table.
Back again this summer is the popular children's passport activity booklet. Find fossils, participate in activities and get stamps in your passport. Collect enough stamps and become a junior paleontologist.
In addition, there are fun and engaging activities for the entire family. Explore the beautiful landscape of the Frenchman River Valley on the hiking trails situated around the Discovery Centre or uncover a new find in the Fossil Dig Sand Pit.
The TRDC, located at #1 T-rex Drive in Eastend, is open daily from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. until Labour Day. The centre is an hour-and-a-half drive from Swift Current and an hour drive from Cypress Hills Interprovincial Park. Visit for special events and activities. Admission is by donation.
Funded by the Government of Saskatchewan and generous donors, the TRDC operates in scientific partnership with the Royal Saskatchewan Museum and is open each summer for visitors to explore.
