Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite giveaway
Does the Iowa Grant high school have a WI meteorite display there? I think with some participation from collectors, hunters, and scientists we could put together something very nice for the school. Or has this already been done?

Re: [meteorite-list] Meteorite giveaway
To supply a local school in each of our areas would be just as nice to do and also provide a little something to our communities. Walmart offers plastic 12 section trays for $2 (at my walmart) that work very well to display meteorites. The 12 sections offers plenty of room to provide a nice selection of meteorite types and cuts. For less then $20 out of pocket, you can make one of these up and give it to your local school. They will LOVE it. I made one for my daughters school and also one with Earth rocks. I will post pics of the trays I give to schools if anyone wants to see to recreate it. Hope everyone is doing good!

RE: [meteorite-list] Meteorite Giveaway...
Hi Steve and List I don't know if you have heard, but a bunch of us UK collectors, recently got together and started, 'The British and Irish Meteorite Society'. (www.bimsociety.org). - So far we have 10 members. At the moment we are in the process of donating some meteorites to The Southdowns Planetarium, in Chichester (England). Sir Patrick Moore (The famous Astronomer) has agreed to receive them from us, and hopefully through this we will be able to get some much needed publicity for the society and the Planetarium. Kids ( adults) from all over the country go to the planetarium for lectures and we feel this is an ideal place to have some material on display! We already have a few reasonable specimens, sourced from our own collections!, but if you or anyone else out there has any spare meteorites they would be gratefully received! (I can cover postage if needed)... Very Best Mark Ford Imca #1388 (Chairman of BIMS). __ Meteorite-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list
