We'll also start to plan for Junior Education Day by evaluating topics for the various stations which the kids visit. The main work session for Jr. Ed. Day will be Nov. 7. Nine speakers are set and a few more may be arranged. See the Symposium web site .
Registration is required for the field trip.
Auction donations are needed and welcomed. In October, there will be no juniors meeting on the 17th since there is no general meeting. On Sunday, October 21, the junior rockhounds will have a field trip to the Crystal Point Mine outside Williamsport to collect quartz crystals. Contact Dr. Peter Heaney if you don't have the details already. Dr. Mary Dawson, Curator of Vertebrate Paleontology and Chairman of the Division of Earth Sciences at Carnegie Museum of Natural History in Pittsburgh, will present the program.
