If you enjoy the great outdoors, and you like to explore the stuff our earth is made of,  you will enjoy the Sierra Pelona Rock Club.   If you enjoy presentations
about gems, minerals, taking field trips with the club, lapidary, and minerals, you will enjoy our Club.  If you just want to enjoy our meetings, you can do that in a
genteel atmosphere where families, and rockhounds can socialize and see some of earth's treasures displayed at every meeting.



We have very simple membership requirements that are designed to encourage participation in the Sierra Pelona Rock Club, and to increase knowledge and
interest in our objectives.  
ANNUAL DUES
The Sierra Pelona Rock Club has a variable dues structure that is beneficial to all members and the welfare of the Club.  There are no dues for Pebble Pups or Life
Members.  Have questions?  Please see our Membership Directors, Ron and Akiko, or our Treasurer, Greg Mazourek.
