The Connecticut Valley Mineral Club is a great way to meet new people, learn about minerals and rocks, and have fun doing it! We hold monthly meetings on the first Wednesday of every month except Feb, Jul and Aug. Doors open at 6:30pm and the meeting runs from 7:00pm-9:00pm. Join us for refreshments, a chance to win a door prize, and informative presentations on all things mineral-related. You don't need to be a member to attend -- everyone is welcome!
We plan for Ten trips/digs per year. In New England, New York, and other areas.
