Do you pick up rocks when you are out walking and collect them? Do you want to spend time with others who do too? Do you want to be able to identify the rocks you find and explore Nature? Join us on a treasure hunt in your own backyard with the added bonus of playing in the dirt. You never know what you might find! We will be discussing and practicing ways to identify different types of rocks found in Maine, finding and sharing rocks in our area, and recording what we find. Optional in-person meet-up at Maine 4-H Days for a session. Optional meeting in Augusta for the Gem and Mineral Show in late August. Possibility of a meet-up at a mineral mine in Western Maine. Register by June 24.
