Enjoy these samples, and we hope you join these clubs. I remain a member of clubs in other states in order to receive their monthly newsletter and invitations to rockhounding field trips. Many field trips are to locales that are either private, or only open to organized groups, such as gem and mineral clubs. The gem and mineral clubs are affordable ways to pursue your hobby, and the information they provide monthly are invaluable ways to pursue your hobby.
