Geology Club Events

In its ten year history, the Geology Club has sponsored a number of field trips. During the 1999 - 2000 school year, they sponsored two field trips; one to Hot Springs, Arkansas and one to Big Bend National Park in Texas. The following year we went to Indiana to collect geodes from a local roadcut and quarry. In the Fall of 2001, the students furiously worked on several fund drives to raise money for a field trip to northern Arizona and southern Utah during Spring Break, 2002. SInce that time they have sponsored a return trip to Arkansas in the Fall of 2002, a trip to West Virginia, Virginia and Pennsylvania in the Spring of 2005, and went with the Petrology class to Arkansas in the Spring of 2007. In the 2007/2008 academic year, the club went to Sylvania to collect trilobites sponsored a canoe/kayak trip. Additionally they raised funds to go to the Rchester Mineralogical Symposium in April. A link to photo highlights from these trips can be found on the Earth Science Department home page.
