Who will be attending the FOSSIL Project mini-conference in June, in Cincinnati?
I have a teaching engagement that I might be able to finish up by the beginning of June. If not, hopefully I can attend next time!

We’ll be announcing the recipients of the Paleontological Society travel grant on April 15th, so we’ll have at least 10 people attending–oh and a bunch of the Dry Dredgers and North Coast Fossil Club members! 😉
December 13, 2016 at 11:42 am #16734Eleanor GardnerModerator@jkallmeyer recently informed me of the sad news that myFOSSIL member @robert-marsh passed away on November 30, 2016. Bob participated in the Cincinnati Mini Conference this past June and his love for fossil collecting was highly evident. Due to health complications, he was unable to clamber over the rocks at our various field trip stops, but Bob’s niece and other Dry Dredgers brought specimens back to his minivan where he enthusiastically inspected them with a portable electronic microscope. The FOSSIL team extends our deepest condolences to Bob’s family, friends, and all of the Dry Dredgers who knew him. Please see an image of his obituary attached.
