When the Lordsburg, New Mexico chamber
of commerce
withdrew it's support of the "Rockamania" rockhounding event which they
organized and ran during the month of February, a deciated group of
mineral

carry
on the tradition of "Rockamania". A new club was formed; the
Roving
Rockhounds, to conduct two weeks of field trips in southern New Mexico
and eastern Arizona during the weeks following the Tucson Gem and
Mineral
shows. The club also conducts additional weeks of field trips in
other parts of the country led by one of it's members to collecting
locations
in and around their home localities.
