RockFest at Tellus

Whether you are a mineral enthusiast or just looking for a fun way to spend time with family and friends, RockFest is a wonderful way to spend the day and learn about our earth and its wonderful treasures.

The day will also be full of giveaways. One lucky guest will win a grand prize, a beautiful 12" splash copper specimen from Michigan! Be sure to head to the indoor dealer area to see the copper and register to win this treasure.

The first 200 visitors on each day will receive a free mineral or fossil specimen for their own collection. Door prizes (donated by RockFest dealers) will be given away every hour.

During this event, mineral, fossil and jewelry dealers from around the Southeast United States will display and sell their rare and beautiful samples of geology from our state and all around the world. Dealers will be set up outdoors and inside in the banquet rooms.

Everyone is invited to bring their own geologic finds to be
identified by experts at the Mineral and Fossil ID Tent. Yes,
this is your chance to see if that "big ugly rock" is really a 

meteorite or iron ore or do you have pyrite or is that really gold? Participate in the many activities - including Rock Bingo.

The Café will have a food station outside where you can get a hot dog or a BBQ sandwich and a cold drink. The Store will have a sale on minerals and fossils. And members, don't forget to stop by the Member Hospitality station for a special treat!

For a rockin' good time, come to the 22nd-annual RockFest at Tellus!
