FIELD TRIPS - 2025

Want to find your own rocks, minerals and fossils?  You have come to the right club!  Field trips are a valued part of our club life. We try to have at least one field trip a month, excepting those months  when weather is difficult.  When possible, we plan trips that allow junior members to participate.  In winter months, our field trips may be indoor trips providing an educational experience.  Here is a listing of field trips  proposed or completed in 2025.  Most are one-day trips.  We plan one "BIG" trip a year which is usually 5-7 days (including travel).  Photos may be of previous trips.
Please note:  YOU MUST BE A CLUB MEMBER TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLUB FIELD TRIP.
