Dig into Geodes

June 22 @ 10:00 am - 1:00 pm
$10

Let’s Dig into Geodes and see what’s inside!

Join us at the Idaho Museum of Mining and Geology (IMMG), next to the Old Pen, for a fun time geode-cracking, an easy 40-minute geology-hike on the nearby hillside and a Museum Visitation. Geode-cracking takes place from 10am-1pm outside under shade canopies on the grass of the historic Women’s Ward. Hikes are scheduled for 11am and again at Noon.

Admission:

Adult Non-members of the IMMG—$10

Children —$5

Every registered child receives one small geode at no cost

Adult IMMG Members & their children—Free admission

This fun event is also a fundraiser for the IMMG.

All adults (members too) who wish to crack a geode, and children who would like a second geode, will need to pay the recommended donation at the site. We have an exciting selection of geodes of all sizes with selected values.

Everyone needs to pre-register so we are prepared. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dig-into-geodesjune-22-tickets-1366440473239?aff=oddtdtcreator
