Juniors Year in Rocks Contest Results
Thank you to SFMS Juniors!
Juniors from several clubs helped make a banner for the 2026 Officers Contact Lists page! Starting in January, the page has a photo with 2026 spelled out in rocks, minerals, fossils, crystals, sand, lapidary items, etc.
Juniors really worked hard and came up with some creative designs. It was soooo hard for the judges to decide and it took a while, but they finally chose the entry submitted by Kahless from the Georgia Mineral Society! Congratulations to Kahless and to all of the juniors who entered the contest! You can see Kahless' Year in Rocks below as well as all of the other entries.
