Getting ready for our Annual Public Silent Auction

On June 6th, 2026 we will be holding our annual silent auction. This event is open to the public. Bidding will begin at 7pm at Splinter's Hatchet and Axe Throwing on Route 611 in Swiftwater. We have been setting records for attendance in recent years, as well as new member sign-ups, and bids. Join us and tell your friends!

We are expecting an array of beautiful specimens to be donated. Past donations included polished pieces, Herkimer diamonds, quartz points, and a variety of specimens. There's no telling what treasures are yet to emerge.

The money made from this auction is used for many activities and expenses in the club. It helps to pay for field trip expenses, standard expenses of officers for official club duties, food for our December member's reward dinner, and anything that may come up in the future.

So please spread the word! All are welcome at this auction and our regular meetings. This is also a great time to learn more about membership, which is $15 per year. If you would like to donate a specimen, ask questions, join the club, or be a sponsor of the event, please email mcearthscienceassociation@gmail.com.
