Junior Booth Prep Party 2008

Will be on Sunday, January 27, 2008 at 11AM! 
We will be at Greenbank Mill! (For certain!)

It will be fun, and we'll get a lot accomplished.  We could still use your donated materials, please. 

Call for Donations

Hopefully, each of you has spent some time on your collections this winter: looking through them, organizing them and high-grading them.

As a result, if you have any mineral or fossil specimens, lapidary materials such as cutting material that you would like to donate for the club to sell at the Junior Booth, please bring them to the February meeting, the Rock Labeling Party or contact any of the Show Committee Officers.  Donations are tax deductible.

We would like to thank our volunteers, who helped with the task of sorting, identifying, labeling, and pricing specimens to be sold at the Junior Booth during our show:

Scott Peters
Fran Poniecki
Eric Hottenstein
Karissa Hendershot
Sophie Homsey
Ken Casey
Willard & Jason Barrowclough
Gene Hartstein
Carl Meundel
Guy & Wendy Sbriglia
& All of Us, who made this feat possible
