The meeting length varies, but usually lasts about 2 hours. There are no regular meetings in December, July, or August. September and January meetings are usually the second Saturday due to Labor Day and New Years weekends.
Meetings will be in-person for 2024.

1.
Meetings usually begin with a presentation by an invited speaker or club member on a topic of mineral, fossil, or lapidary interest.
3.
There is a show & tell period. For every meeting, there is a "Mineral of the Month." This is not a requirement, but merely a suggestion to help create a more themed show & tell.
5.
The meeting adjourns.
2.
We take a social break with refreshments, provided by the month's hosts, while the silent auction runs. Members (and new guests) bid on donated hobby related materials, the proceeds of which are used to support club activities and operations.
