The second and third days may be scheduled either on the Sunday and Monday after the first day or spread over later weeks, for example, on three Saturdays. Non-weekend dig sessions can be arranged whenever at least two people enroll for the same session. Excavation sessions up to nine days long are offered to groups only, by special arrangement. Fees for these sessions are based on the number of participants and the curriculum selected. Minimum enrollment is three persons per session, or the fee equivalent for three persons.
Further discounts are available for groups of four or more.
The rest of the tuition fees help pay the professional archaeologists who provide instruction in our field schools, including employee benefits, and the costs of the extensive special analyses and scholarly research that need to be done to prepare a professional-quality final report on the Sabino Canyon Ruin archaeological project once the fieldwork is completed. Here are some ideas if you need a place to stay.
