What's Your Hot Button?

Presentation by Vice President, Vernon Deck

We have a new program for our September 10th Educational Meeting! Join us for an interactive presentation by our Vice President, Vernon Deck, titled "What's Your Hot Button?" This will be a fun and engaging discussion where members and guests can share their reasons for being passionate about rocks, minerals, fossils, gemstones, rockhounding, and the lapidary arts.

We want to hear from you—why did you join the Roseville Rock Rollers Gem and Mineral Society, and what makes it exciting for you? Whether you're a long-time member or just starting out, this is a great opportunity to connect with others who share your passion.
