Fall Dig Day, October 18th, YOU MUST REGISTER to PARTICIPATE
Dig Days take place at the Berry site, outside of Morganton, NC, so everybody has a chance to participate in the discovery of Fort San Juan and Joara. This is a fun, casual workday, so while we
do want to be productive, the most important part is that people are able to enjoy themselves. We have 5 Dig Days scheduled this Spring, and they are all accepting registrations.
Dig Day Details
Dig Days are on Saturdays from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm, please see the events calendar for more dates. Once you register, a confirmation email with details and directions will be sent. You must be 16 years of age or older to participate (younger explorers ages 10-15 must be accompanied by a paid adult). No experience is necessary. Participants may enroll for one or more of the scheduled dates. These days are weather dependent and need a minimum of 4 people registered. Cost is $15.00 per day, or $5.00 if you are a donor of EJF's.
