The CMC will meet Saturday, Jan. 8th at 1:00 PM at the Salvation Army Building on Clinton Street in Concord, NH.

Our guest speaker for the January meeting is Don Dallaire.  

Don will be talking to us on the subject of Mining Lighting.  The display theme for this meeting will be Mineral collecting Memorabilia.

 Anyone who would like to donate a mineral specimen to the club raffle please bring it with you.

Refreshments this month will be provided by Terry Crowell and Annette Comeau.

 As usual, the CMC annual Christmas Party was a  wonderful time for all who attended.  A pot luck feast, including, ham, turkey and all the holiday trimmings was a treat.

 The tenth annual Best Field Collecting and Best Lapidary Contests were held.  Winners are posted on page 2.

We also enjoyed a Yankee Swap towards the end of the afternoon. A nice selection of  “rockhound” specimens were swapped.

CMC members in attendance thank Scott Higgins for his help in organizing the event.
