Sand and Rock Samples

The exhibit in our lobby this month is a collection of sand and rock samples on loan from Shannon Kenyon. Shannon is Assistant District Manager at Northwest Kansas Ground Water Management District #4 located in Colby, Kansas.

Her collection started in about 2000. Shannon has collected many of the samples herself. While her father was in the military, Shannon's mother (Ginger Bromley) collected many samples of foreign sand and rocks during her travels.

Shannon also has an extensive collection of fossils and larger rock we hope she will share with us at some time in the future.
