Visitors will embark on a personal, hands-on voyage of discovery in anextraordinary setting that bears witness to one of the most momentous events in ourplanet's history. By opening a window to the past, we imbue visitors with the thrill ofscientific discovery as they develop a new appreciation for the preciousness of lifethat sustains our world today.The museum under construction will become a one-of-a-kind destination that botheducates and entertains. The local community will gain a world-class culturalinstitution that will attract visitors from across the country and around the globe. Thefossil park and museum will energize economic development in the region, elevatethe prominence of Rowan University, and foster pride of place for Southern NewJersey.Globally Important Research: At the Jean & Ric Edelman Fossil Park & Museum,visitors travel back in time to when dinosaurs ruled New Jersey. Sixty-six millionyears ago, an asteroid struck the Earth, wiping out the dinosaurs and 75% of species.The fossil park’s 4-acre fossil quarry, set into a 65-acre property, is providingscientists with the best view ever into this pivotal, calamitous event that ended anEarth era, paving the way for the modern world as we know it. Over the past 13 years,fossil park founder, Dr. Kenneth Lacovara, and his team, have unearthed over 100,000fossils from a 66-million years old bonebed in the quarry bottom, and have catalogedover 100 fossil species.A Rich Heritage: Surprising to many, New Jersey boasts a rich heritage of fossildiscovery. In 1858, Hadrosaurus, the world’s first discovered nearly complete dinosaur,was found in Haddonfield, New Jersey. In 1866, the world’s first discoveredtyrannosaur, Dryptosaurus, was unearthed just a mile from the fossil park. (T. rex,found in Montana, would come later in 1905.) Many other new species of ancientcreatures have been discovered in New Jersey, from Cretaceous beds running fromFreehold southwest through Swedesboro. Although dinosaurs were first recognizedfrom fragmentary remains in England, southern New Jersey can rightfully claim itsplace as the cradle of dinosaur paleontology.The Thrill of Discovery: Hand-on, authentic discovery is at the core of the Jean & RicEdelman Fossil Park public experience. Above the research layer, there are areasdesignated for public digging. Nearly every child or grownup who visits the quarry todig for fossils, finds a 65-million-year-old fossil, with their own hands, that they getto take home. Over and over, this has been a transformational experience for people.When they make a personal connection between themselves and deep time, and theplace where they live and the Earth’s ancient past, they never again see the world, ortheir place in it, in quite the same way. Children seem to understand the authenticityof the experience. The shark tooth or ancient clam that they may dig up, is a realdiscovery. At that moment, they become explorers, voyagers, authenticdiscoverers—an experience that can set them on a new path.Sustainability: The core concept behind the Jean & Ric Edelman Fossil Park Museumis that we must learn from Earth’s deep past to guide our way into the future. TheEdelman Fossil Park & Museum IT Support Specialist Job Description March 3, 2025extinction of the dinosaurs serves as a cautionary tale for the multiple, simultaneousexistential crises we face today.
