ESCONI

For the second year, ESCONI was asked to participate in the Ranch View Elementary STEAM event in Naperville. Represnting the club were Jodi Gosain, Rusty Grenier, and Jim Bigler. The club had three tables of fossils, rocks, geodes, magnetic stones and our popular dig box. Over 300 parents and children attended our booth. In addition, Rusty Grenier had an opportunity to meet up with his creation in the school’s library. Last year, ESCONI donated to the school a model Styracosaurus that Rusty had made and donated to the club.

    Liam, an Esconi junior was terrific with the students. His enthusiasm for the mineral specimens brought energy to the event.
