38th Annual Flagg Gem & Mineral Show
Today
through January 10
Community College
Mesa
The 38th Annual Flagg Gem and Mineral Show will be held Friday, January 8, 2010 to Sunday, January 10, 2010 from 9 am to 5 pm. The show will be located at Mesa Community College in the West parking lot which is on Dobson Road between Southern Avenue and the Superstition Freeway (Route 60). A number of exhibits will be set up including the Peralta Stone maps and a special fluorescent display. Parking and admission is free, and there will be free activities for children along with free samples for children and teachers.
One goal of this show is to increase the interest of children in rocks, minerals, geology, and science. Children can become interested in science through minerals, crystals, and fossils, and our hope is to encourage their interest. Several groups will have free samples for children and for teachers. There will be free activities for children, such as "Dig for Fossils". The Arizona Leaverites have a large collection of labeled rock and mineral samples, and 12 samples can be purchased for one dollar.
