field trips/GTARMC show

Our rockhounds go on several trips each year to great rock and mineral hunting grounds! These trips are fun for the whole family and are not only entertaining, but full of learning and collecting opportunities as well. Below are some pictures from some of the GTARMC's field trips from recent years. Field Trips A big part of being a rockhound is sharing our hobby and crafts with others! GTARMC members participate in numerous rock and mineral shows every year where they showcase their skills and help spread interest and knowledge about rocks minerals and the lapidary arts. Our biggest event is the club show held the last weekend of September at the History Center of Traverse City. Vendor booths, demonstrations and a kid's table are featured. For more information on the show, contact the show chair, Tom Fordyce. Below are a few pictures from a recent club show.
