The Event
On the morning of August 28th, 19 children from Sepulveda Middle School in North
Hills, media, museum and Disney employees shared in a historic moment as Lucky
the dinosaur walked out from his brightly colored tent beneath the Natural
History Museum's bronze dinosaurs. I can only imagine what the passing vehicles
and pedestrians must have thought as the 9 foot tall dinosaur stood before the
cameras and awe struck children.
The event began with Dr. John Harris, Chief Curator for the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County.

Dr Harriss: Good morning everybody. Welcome to the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County where we celebrate the milestones of mankind. This year we also celebrate 90 years of scientific wonder and discovery which is showcased here in Southern California right here at this magnificent museum. We're very proud of our mission and the role that we play in helping our community and the world understand more about the history of mankind, the story of our planet and about the lives of the fascinating creatures that lived or used to live on its continents and oceans. So today as home to the largest collection of dinosaur fossils west of the Rocky Mountains we're thrilled to help introduce the latest dinosaurian discovery. This significant find is unlike any other previous discovery. It was unearthed...it was unearthed in Glendale, California by a band of inquisitive and innovative men and women who were like most of us were fascinated by the thought of interacting with these incredible creatures that roamed our planet millions of years ago. So now to tell you more about this wonderful discovery it is my very great pleasure to welcome the vice president of research and development at Walt Disney Imagineering, Bruce Vaughn.
