Pebbles and small cobbles, 2pm on July 11, 2019
GaLTT Summer Event at Blue Heron Community Park. We'll be collecting rocks from Whalebone beach and trying to figure out what they're made of and where they came from. A family event.

Pebble Adventure, 2pm on August 11, 2013
Bluewhale Community Park (Entrance is at junction of Whalebone Drive and Killerwhale Lookout)
Contrary to GaLTT members' letter, this is not a "for kids only" event. What we'll do is go out on the beach in small groups, collect cobbles and pebbles that look interesting, bring them back to the park, sort them, and then talk about what we know, and don't know, about them. Although, this is not a children's event; children are sometimes extraordinarily adept at finding interesting things, so they're welcome, and if they come along, they can, if they like, help us with the collecting, and we'll do our best to describe any extra-special rocks they find.

Orginal notice: There is going to be a boat trip to Valdes on July 25 to see the cliffs there. The erosion patterns in the sandstone are quite spectacular. There is also going to be a slide show at the ROXY on July 23. This is both a pre-trip talk and for anyone with an interest in sandstone and its geology.
