Wanna go on a field trip?

Oops, sorry and I hope I didn't get you too excited. We have our TOTE (Treasures of the Earth) biggest show this month from March 20th-22nd, so trips are always suspended until the show is over.

That gives you plenty of time to get ready for the next one, usually offered on the 3rd weekend of the month. Typically, they are from 9am-2pm depending on location and if you don't drive, you can always seek out a member to carpool.

Now while you can go to a general meeting without being a member, you can only go on the field trips across the state of New Mexico after joining. Did you know it's only $30 for the year and that gets you access to the field trips, to information only available to members, access to the lapidary studio after passing an online course and decades of expertise of those who have been members.

If you can, come to the next general meeting, see what we are all about and join the club if it's a great fit for your rockhounding needs.

Our next meeting will be on March 26, 2026 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
Monte Vista Christian Church, 3501 Campus Blvd NE, Albuquerque, NM 87106, USA. The members will be exhausted from working the TOTE show; however, they are always willing to answer any questions you may have.

You too can become an old rockhounder!
