Volunteers are invited to help the Mississippi Valley Archaeology Center explore new archeological sites. An archaeological survey of local fields will be from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, May 3.
The survey is one way MVAC will celebrate Wisconsin Archaeology month.
The day will include an introduction at the archaeology laboratory, followed by a search of local fields for artifacts. At the end of the day, participants will bring artifacts back to the lab to wash them and learn about their history.
