2nd Annual Sheridan Gem and Mineral Show May 3

Sheridan Gem and Mineral Club co-founder Sara Heywood and Club President Bill Bradshaw joined the owner of the Montana Agate Shop, Eddie White, to invite curious residents and rockhounds of every level to the 2nd Annual Sheridan Gem and Mineral Show. 

Although the Sheridan Gem and Mineral Club was founded recently, it already has many members with plenty of rock and geological knowledge that can fulfill and inspire curiosity of the budding rockhound.

The Sheridan Gem and Mineral Show is a coordinated effort by the club and White. While on a rock hunting trip with another member of the club, White was asked if he could coordinate a show for the Sheridan Region.
