Join us Tuesday July 1 from 6pm-7pm for our July meeting. We will be at the Maxwell-Potter Conservancy Shelter. We will only cancel for thunderstorm/tornado watch or warning. Clue...a light rain can make rockhounding easier & going after heavier rains like we had the last few days can uncover new beauties!

Please bring a trivia question to share with the group. Also, we will have sign up sheets available for yearly membership dues.

Address is 700 Hill St Baraboo (across from dog park)

**Always put safety first when rockhounding.**
