Save the dinosaurs in Amarillo

ConnectAmarillo.com: Save the dinosaurs in Amarillo

AMARILLO, TEXAS -- You could be one of thousands of people in the panhandle to help save the dinosaurs in Amarillo. The T-Rex experience traveling show has been a hit at the Don Harrington Discovery Center, but it's supposed to leave at the end of this April.

Because kids and parents have been reacting so well, the center has started a campaign to "Help Us Save A 'Saurus" and extend the dinosaurs' stay through Memorial day.

"Dinosaurs are really amazing creatures. They excite us, they excite our children and it's a great way to get started in science. I got my start in science by falling in love with dinosaurs and we want to a whole new generation of kids who are excited by math, science, engineering, and technology, no better exhibit, than the T-Rex experience, to do that," said Chip Lindsey, the Associate Director at the Don Harrington Discovery Center.

To save a 'saurus you can click here to make a donation or you can drop by the center and pick up a sticker for a dollar . The exhibit is already being extended two weeks, so more people can see this once in a lifetime event.
