January 2004

I have a few hopes for this year for the club. First and most all I hope everyone remains well this year. Hope to grow the club some, bigger is better. I want to get some classes up, maybe another gemtree class, also one on cabbing and another on mineral identification.

I am still hoping to fill some empty Chairperson positions (program, field trip, show and etc…). I will help anyone that does step up and fill a position it would just give me some help.

To find some new places to go on field trips if anyone comes across a possible location to go to please pass it on. We also need to find a location for our DMC trip for Feb. 2004 it will be here before we know it. Note: The Georgia Limestone Quarry has been sold! That was the site for our DMC dig, back to the drawing board.

To build our library that was just started. If there are any books or magazines on our hobby that you would like to share, just bring them to a meeting.

I am sure there is more but this is a good start.
