[meteorite-list] National Meteoritical Societies

[MARK BOSTICK]

Hello Jeff,

Not a National Society, but here in Wichita we have the Kansas Meteorite 
Society.  We have done several talks and displays , been in the newspaper, 
on television and the Kansas Geological Survey people knows us well.  
Currently we are working on putting a display in one of the local libraries, 
and have offered help in donations, advise or information with the mayors of 
Haviland and Greensburg, Kansas on building a possible meteorite museum, and 
seeing how we can be of help in the likely upcoming Meteorite Festival in 
Haviland.  Next month, a talk with at the local rock club monthly meeting.  
The Haviland and Greensburg projects are at their earliest of stages but I 
have hopes, and if anyone is interested in any of the above...like going to 
the festival or helping with the musuem, let me know and I will keep you up 
to date as things go along.

The last three Kansas meteorites made official are because of our direct 
actions and we have a goal of adding at least ten.

Tomorrow I will be in Haviland to see another Brenham dug up with the 
backhoe.

Clear Skies,
Mark Bostick
Wichita, Kansas
