Activities

		Geofest
		A fun day in October for kids, teachers, and parents to explore coastal and marine geology in celebration of Earth Science Week. GeoFest 2001 included hands-on exhibits, a guided Geology Walk to Trunk River, free give-aways, and a prize raffle. Geofest will be an annual event. Contact: Chris Polloni See Our Pictures!
		Volunteers in Public Schools
		Many USGS employees volunteer to mentor young students in local public schools. Some mentoring projects create a product, such as exhibits or web pages. The two links below demonstrate positive examples of teamwork between scientists and students. Mineral Detective Page: Falmouth, MA
