Scholarships are made available to local college students and many in the society provide part time employment for some of these students. Geologists assist Boy Scouts in obtaining merit badges in geology and science. A Christmas dance and other social functions are normally held each year for members, spouses, and guests. Golf, tennis and racquetball tournaments are sponsored as recreational activities. Many of the social activities are sponsored with the society auxiliary and other groups, such as the landmen and engineers.
Any history is never complete.
Many members of the Corpus Christi Geological Society have held, or hold positions in some of the other geological organizations. There may be others who have been given special recognition by the society. It is not intended to slight anyone in this history. If you have information that should be added, please get it to me, and it can be added to the next revision. If you check the list of officers, you will notice that several have held the same position more than once.
