KIDS CORNER December

2017

Our November meeting ended our "Gold" category . The kids created maps of

all gold mine locations across our great state of Washington, and went home

with some awesome samples for their collections. We had one child who

earned his "gold" badge for attending all 3 meetings in this category. Congrat-

ulations Aiden!

There will not be a December meeting for kids or adults, only the Holiday Pot-

luck is scheduled for the month.

The next "Youth" meeting will be on the 2nd Friday in January at 7:00 pm up-

stairs in the Fruitland Grange. Please bring your kids for the fun of learning

earth sciences with us!

Have a wonderful holiday!
