April 2015 Program Information
April 2015 Program
We will have a Show and Tell - Each of us will bring in one or two items of interest to show to our colleagues, and we will explain why we think that the items are interesting, or "cool", or beautiful.I think that this program will give us all a better sense of the depth of knowledge available in the SVGMS.
There’s a gallery of pictures from the meeting to be viewed here.
If there is time left, Jack Glenn will show us an episode or two from The Mineral Explorers.
