Mardy's Egg Carton Mineral Collections Are An Arizona Legend!
     At the 2006 Flagg Show Mardy moved a record 587 egg carton mineralk collections. That adds up to $587 for the Museum, and 587 young people who have a dozen new things to wonder about!   
    The Television publicity caused a run on the Egg Carton Collections. The previous high number of sales for the Flagg Show was 325. Many people mentioned they saw it on TV. Mardy had 290 varieties or rocks, minerals, and fossils to choose from.
    Mardy has a request for all Flagg Members and Rockhounds of Arizona.  As you know, Kids Love Pyrite, and we can't find enough. If anyone has some pyrite (or knows where to find it), the egg carton project needs some.
     It sounds to me like a fieldtrip in the making, but   where will we go for pyrite?  Email the editor!

Here is Mardy's  famous Egg Carton Mineral Collection Booth at the Flagg Show.
