November's field trip is to the Rockville Crushed Stone Inc Quarry for grossular garnets, quartz, calcite, serpentine, zoisite, and much more (these are what I've found in the past). The address is 13900 Piney Meetinghouse Road, Rockville, MD 20850.. Meet at the Manager's Office no later than 8:30 am. We will collect from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm. Kids are welcome. This is a hard rock quarry and you will need heavy boots, hard hat, safety goggles, heavy work gloves, rock hammer, rock chisels, buckets/egg cartons and paper to wrap specimens. Don't forget plenty of water, snaxs and sunscreen, and dress for the weather. Club members only
