If you require sleeping areas with 24hr power, nearby access to restrooms and elevators, parking in our handicap accessible lot, or have other requests, please contact overnight staff ASAP to ensure we can accommodate your needs. Do not wait to contact staff as often arrangements need to be made within various Museum departments and delaying requests may mean not being able to accommodate your needs. SLEEP ARRANGEMENT QUESTIONS Where will I be sleeping if I m here with a group? Each group will have a specific area designated as their sleep space. Sleeping maps will be handed out during check-in. The space you are assigned depends on the size of your group. All groupswill be sleeping on the Main Level in the exhibit halls. Note that all the sleeping areas are carpeted. Where will I be sleeping if I m here as a Standard Overnight family (not part of a group)? There will be a space reserved in an exhibition on the Main Level. All standard overnight families will sleep in this exhibit. The space assigned for families varies depending on the number of families attending the overnight.

10 Where will I be sleeping if I have Premium Package tickets? Premium Package guests sleep in the Evolving Planet exhibit on the Upper Level. The Genius Hall of Dinosaurs (the big room with all the dinos!) is the space reserved for Premium Package guests, however, if you find a spot you like elsewhere in the Evolving Planet exhibit you are welcome to sleep there. When can I set up my stuff? Upon arrival guests are invited to set up their sleeping bags, cots, or air mattresses. This is the way to stake a claim to your sleeping spot. However, make sure you don t spread out your gear so much that other guests can t walk around and see the exhibits. Outlets are available throughout the museum to inflate your air mattress but some of them will turn off with lights out so don t leave this job til 12am. Note that tents are strictly prohibited. Will all-girls groups be sleeping in the same area as all-boys groups? Sleep arrangements are based firstly on the size of the group and then on the gender of the group. Every effort is made to put groups of the same gender in the same area. Sleep spaces in the exhibit halls are clearly marked and, surprisingly for a big museum, most halls feel like your own little space. Will I be warm or cold while I m sleeping? Both. We do our best to keep the temperatures moderate and comfortable during an overnight, but this is a big building and temperature can vary from hall to hall. To be safe, we suggest bringing layers of clothes - as in a t-shirt and a sweatshirt. Will I have access to 24 hour electricity in my sleeping area? Maybe. If you need a plug to inflate your air mattress, we recommend doing so before lights-out. If you need help finding an outlet, feel free to ask Dozin with the Dinos staff to direct you to a nearby outlet. In some exhibitions the power to the outlets will turn off when the lights are turned off. If you need 24 hour access to electricity (for example, if you use a CPAP), please contact overnights@fieldmuseum.org at least one week prior to the overnight event to make sure you are directed to a sleeping location that will have working outlets. DEPARTURE QUESTIONS When do I have to pack up my gear? All your gear (sleeping bags, etc.) need to be out of the exhibit halls by 9am on Saturday morning. If you wish to shop in the Museum Store before exiting, you are welcome to put your gear outside the Museum Store for a few minutes while you shop. What if I have to leave early? The South Door of The Museum opens at 8:30am on Saturday. If you are leaving before 8:30am please exit via the East Entrance on the Ground Level. If you are leaving before 6am please contact a member of the Dozin with the Dinos staff or a Protection Services Officer. What should I do on Saturday? Your general admission for The Field Museum on Saturday has been covered. If you would like to stay part of the morning or the whole day! please feel free to do so. Make sure you get your hand stamped by a Dozin with the Dinos staff person in order to be let back into The Museum after loading up your gear into your car (or putting it in coat check if you took public transportation).

Respect your fellow overnighters and their belongings while touring Museum exhibitions. Will there be security present at the overnight? Yes. The Field Museum Protection Services department has staff members inside the building 24 hours a day. Each member of the Protection Services team is trained in CPR. A Dozin with the Dinos staff person or a Protections Services Officer can almost always be found in Stanley Field Hall (the main hall of the Museum). Guests are encouraged to leave their belongings in the sleep area during the overnight program as a means of staking out their own spot. While we don t have an issue with theft at the overnight program, we do highly recommend keeping valuables on your person at all times. The Field Museum does not take responsibility for any lost or stolen items.

12 Will there be an EMT present at the overnight? An EMT is brought in especially for the overnight program and is available throughout the entirety of the event. The First Aid Station is located on the Ground Level of the Museum. A Dozin with the Dinos staff person or Field Museum Protection Services Officer will gladly assist a guest to the First Aid station for any reason even if you just want a band-aid. What behaviors will be cause for removal from The Museum? The Dozin with the Dinos staff and Field Museum Protection Services staff reserve the right to remove guests from The Museum during a Dozin with the Dinos program. Behavior that would merit removal from The Museum includes, but is not limited to, belligerence to a staff person or other guest, fighting, possession or consumption of alcohol or illegal substances. Refunds will not be issued. TICKETING QUESTIONS What s different about Premium Package tickets? Premium Package tickets are limited in quantity. Only families can purchase Premium Package tickets. Space in Evolving Planet is limited and we are unable to accommodate groups request to purchase Premium Package tickets. Groups may only purchase Standard Overnight tickets. Premium Package guests sleep upstairs in the Evolving Planet exhibit (with the dinosaurs)! Premium Package With Tour guests spend the first 45 minutes of the workshop time on a behind-thescenes tour with a Field Museum scientist. (Tours will vary depending on availability and scheduling of scientific staff.) Guest must purchase Premium Package tickets in advance upgrades the night of the event are not allowed. Can I bring children aged younger than 6 or older than 12? No. We receive many requests from people to bring children to the overnights that are outside our designated age range of 6-12 years old. For many reasons, we are unable to approve these requests. In the interest of fairness, we can t make an exception for some participants while refusing it for others. Additionally, the activities offered are designed for children between the ages of 6 to 12 and children who are younger or older would not find them appropriate for their skills and/or interests. Children younger than 6 years are not allowed particularly because of the program timeline: programming runs until 11:30pm with a bedtime of 1:00am. Also, because of the popularity of the program and the fact that it consistently sells out, giving tickets to participants outside the age range takes those tickets away from our intended audience. What should we do if we want to increase the size of our group? If your group size is going to increase dramatically by 10 people or more contact The Museum ASAP in order to ensure additional spaces are reserved for your group. The group size can change until final payment is due 5 weeks before the program date or until the event sells out (whichever comes first). After the final payment due date, groups increasing their size will be required to contact the Museum at overnights@fieldmuseum.org to request additional spots. The Museum will make every effort to accommodate those requests up to 1 week before the program date. The Museum cannot accommodate requests made the week of the overnight or the night of the event. Please note: checks will not be accepted for increases in group size. All tickets will be charged to the credit card on file. What happens if group members are unable to attend and the group size shrinks? The group size can change until final payment is due 5 weeks before the program date. Groups reducing their size after the final payment due date have two options: 1) Participants can find a replacement for those group members unable to attend or 2) Participants can transfer their tickets to another overnight date in the season. See question below regarding exchanges. Refunds are not given for Dozin with the Dinos tickets.

13 Can I get an exchange if I do not attend the event? Exchanges are allowed for Standard Overnight and Premium Package ticket bearers PROVIDED THE MUSEUM IS CONTACTED IN ADVANCE OF THE OVERNIGHT. Guests giving advance notification can exchange their tickets for a future overnight program within the same overnight season. An alternate date must be provided by the ticket holder when the exchange is requested. Exchanges will not be made after the event has passed. No exceptions. Requests made less than 7 days in advance of the program date will be charged a $10 per ticket processing fee.
