To find out more about how to attend a field trip, please contact the Fort Worth Gem and Mineral Club via email.
Rules:
• Field trips are organized for the participation of our members. Directions, clothing and special
requirements will be included in each field trip notice.
• Most are open to members, spouses and some allow children, when it is safe for them.
• Many trips are on private land, with the owner’s permission and sometimes their special
requirements and limits on participation.
• Some hunts require that you sign a hold harmless agreement with specific rules and
expectations.
• Members are expected to honor a property owner’s request, respect the property, and
leave the site cleaner than we found it. Fill any holes you dig.
• When hunting on public land, do not venture onto private property.
• Members must provide their own tools, safety wear and containers for their finds.
• Most hunts require long pants, long-sleeved shirts, boots or hard leather shoes, some
require gloves, safety glasses and hard hats.
• Remember to bring sunscreen, bug spray, your own snacks and lots of water.

Scheduled Trips
* Check Back Soon About Trips:
At each meeting we will discuss upcoming field trip events and possible trips in the near future. It will also be published in the newsletter,
as well as added into the calendar which is located on the forum. Please, feel free to contact
Felice Moreno if you have suggestions on a
trip for the group. Not all trips allow minors, but there are several trips planned with minors in mind. So if you're considering
becoming a member of this group and have children, don't be discouraged!
There's something for everyone! For more information on upcoming trips check out our Facebook page (Like us!) or join the forum.
*NOTE: As expected, during the hot months, our trips are not as frequent and this is the same for when it is rainy season, for obvious reasons. It should be known that we do, on occasion, join trips with other groups and visa versa. If you are interested in joining in on a trip, the best thing you can do is write to us and ask for more information, or ask about any up coming trips that may not have made it's way to this website yet. This section is updated as often as I can, but it's just not always going to be the most accurate information either since plans do and can change before reaching my ears.
