Sometimes you just want to have some fun.
That’s the idea that prompted a Peterborough resident to dress up in a dinosaur costume last week in downtown Peterborough.
On Thursday night (August 30), Amanda Stewart was on the patio of the Historic Red Dog Tavern when she noticed a human-sized T-Rex walking down the sidewalk of Hunter Street West.
Amanda took a video on her phone and posted it on Facebook, with the comment “School’s back in town!”

As it turns out, the person in the T-Rex costume was Sarah Anderson.
Sarah posted on Facebook that she went out in her costume “as a one-rex rave” because she was bored and lonely and didn’t want to sit at home watching television.
“I want to start an organization for adults to just come be silly a few hours a week,” Sarah tells kawarthaNOW.com via Facebook message.
In another Facebook post (she goes by the name “Paloma Rose” on Facebook), she explains her idea in more detail.
Peterborough, Facebook land, I’m gathering ideas.
Thursday I went out in a t-rex costume. I was bored, it happens…

Sarah says she’s still thinking about the idea, but if you’re interested in helping, you can contact her through her Facebook page.
