This is Throwback Thursday #205. In these, we look back into the past at ESCONI specifically and Earth Science in general. If you have any contributions, (science, pictures, stories, etc …), please send them to esconi.info@gmail.com. Thanks!
Here is the announcement for the 2013 ESCONI Gem, Mineral, and Fossil Show. It was held in the same building at the Dupage County Fairgrounds as our 2024 show. And, look at that… also March 16th and 17th. No confusion here!
