FAMILY FUN CALENDAR

There will be lots of rocks, including big rocks to touch, smaller rocks to sort, and tiny rocks to sift from the art-room sandbox. Collect coal and iron ore hauled by our O-scale model railway, plus gravel used to support real railroad tracks (including gray limestone, red granite, and pick quartzite). The play-dough table will be set up as a quarry, where diggers and dump trucks excavate rocks and crystals and wooden trains haul them all away.
