Clubhouse Grand Opening
September 6, 2025 @ 1:00 PM – 4:00 PM
Since 1945, the mission of the Minnesota Mineral Club has been to encourage interest and education in geology, mineralogy, lapidary and earth sciences.
Multiple attempts over the past 80 years have been made to create a physical location that could be the enduring home of the MMC, act as a classroom, be a space for club meetings, AND a workshop with access to lapidary equipment and training, but all have failed… UNTIL NOW.
A new chapter is beginning on Saturday, Sept. 6, 2025 with the Grand Opening of the new clubhouse — The Rockhaus. Your 2025 Minnesota Mineral Club Board of Directors and Clubhouse Committee invite you to join the celebration between 1:00pm-4:00pm. The event is an open house format so come anytime to ask some questions, look around, see the equipment, see what capabilities there are and visit with other members. Refreshments will be provided.
