  The layered rocks of Thacher Park preserve 30 million years of the ancient past. The fossils and rocks tell of ever-changing life and environments, from tidal flats and coral reefs to deeper water. Take a walk through time with Dr. Chuck Ver Straeten, NYS Museum geologist, and see how Thacher Park and eastern North America changed. Meet at Paint Mine parking lot and picnic area. The program is free but the parking fee is $6 per vehicle.]]></description>
