About

“We love mineralogy, geology, rockhounding, paleontology, lapidary arts — anything related to rocks! We are dedicated to learning, exploring, sharing, and educating others so they can enjoy earth science as much as we do.”

Club Meetings

We meet the first Thursday of each month. We enjoy an educational presentation by a guest speaker and sharing finds with fellow rockhounds.

Rock Bingo

November 2022 Rock Club Meeting

Bring your game on. Every winner wins a prize — a rock of course! Never played Bingo before? No worries because it is easy. Kids and adults LOVE Rock Bingo.

Please note that you do have to be quiet so everyone can hear the numbers called out. We have duct tape at the door for Tom S. who drowned out the caller last time we played. We’ll be watching for you, Tom… LOL!

Guests Welcome
