December 15 - Annual Christmas Party

Put on your holiday spirit and join your NWAGMS rockhound family for an evening of good food, laughter, and Christmas fun! Bring a favorite dish to share for our traditional potluck. We'll also have an optional gift exchange for those who want to join in (rock related of course!)
Come hungry, bring your holiday cheer, and help us celebrate another great year together!
Mark your calendar! We'll meet on the 3rd Tuesday this month instead of our usual 4th Tuesday.
