NHTrust & MVSB proudly support dino exhibit at Squam Lakes Natural Science Center

Dinosaurs have returned to the Squam Lakes Natural Science Center and are on display through Nov. 1.

NHTrust and sister-affiliate bank Meredith Village Saving Bank sponsored the Baryonyx dinosaur, which is one of five dinosaurs on display throughout the live animal exhibit trail.

Baryonyx is a genus of theropod dinosaur that lived in the Barremian stage of the Early Cretaceous period, about 130–125 million years ago and was the first fish-eating dinosaur discovered.

“We are so grateful for the support from both MVSB and NHTrust in this collaborative sponsorship,” said Iain MacLeod, Squam Lakes Natural Science Center executive director. “This was an exciting exhibit we had a few years ago and definitely a favorite for our visitors, in particular children, and we welcome the opportunity to have it back. It would not have been possible without the support of local community-focused organizations.”

“We are happy we could help support the Science Center’s Dinosaurs Return exhibit along with our sister company, NHTrust,” said Jill White, MVSB regional vice president. “We share a commitment to supporting nature-based education and exploration in New Hampshire, and the Science Center is a wonderful resource for accomplishing that and more.”

“The Science Center is a delightful learning experience for children of all ages and supporting their programming is an opportunity for families to understand the balance of keeping our natural spaces for the wildlife that live here alongside the people of New Hampshire,” said Paul Provost, president of NHTrust. “What better way to learn about local animals than in the natural habitats that the Science Center provides and NHTrust is so pleased to be able to partner with MVSB to continue their mission.”
