Welcome to the Marysville Rock & Gem Club
Our objective is to bring together those people who have chosen as their hobby, the collection of rocks, minerals, and fossils; the lapidary arts including jewelry-making; and methods of display, and to encourage the study of related earth sciences.
We welcome visitors at our meetings! Please join us!
