About this Exploration:




What's a Fick?   The Fick is a Fossil and History museum located in the Oakley Public Library building founded by benefactors Earnest and Vi Fick.

Come see an actual sod house,  a general store display, countless railroad and western  artifacts, and over 1,000 photographs depicting early pioneer life in our area.  Key fossils include a 15 foot Xiphactinus Audax, a prehistoric fish found locally by renowned paleontologist George F. Sternberg and the skull of a mosasaur, a 30-foot long marine reptile. 

This free museum is open Monday- Friday 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and Saturday 9 a.m. - 3 p.m.
