The Wichita Gem & Mineral Society
We are a group of people who love rocks and enjoy hanging out with like-minded rock-loving friends. The age of our group ranges from young kiddos and their parents to the very mature. We meet every month to talk about rocks and eat snacks. We laugh a lot and always welcome visitors. Come visit to learn and discuss many subjects in the field of geology.
