Show
host the 2026
ROCKY MOUNTAIN FEDERATION of mineralogical Societies annual Convention

Dear Rockhounds,
On behalf of the Tulsa Rock and Mineral Society, I would like to welcome you to
our annual show and the Rocky Mountain Federation of Mineralogical Societies
2026 Convention.
Established in 1958, the Tulsa Rock and Mineral Society remains a vibrant
community with an active membership and an excellent Pebble Pups program.
We are fortunate to maintain close relationships with two local museums that
house our club's rock shops:
- The Elsing Museum: Located at Oral Roberts University, this free museum
features a vast collection of minerals, gems, fossils, and artifacts. Our long-time
member and geologist, Claude Bolze, serves as the past curator.
- The DW Correll Museum: Located in Catoosa, this unique institution displays
antiques, rocks, minerals, and vintage automobiles. We are pleased to have the
museum’s curator, Eric Hamshar, as a long-time member and our current show
chair.
This is an especially exciting year for Tulsa. In addition to the show and
convention, the area is hosting celebrations for the 100th anniversary of Route
66 and the 250th anniversary of the United States. As the capital of Route 66,
Tulsa offers 28 miles of historic road to explore, leading to landmarks such as
the iconic Blue Whale in Catoosa.
Thank you for joining us. We hope you enjoy the show and the many activities
our city has to offer.
Sincerely,
Roberta Wagle
TRMS President
