Patrick Nurre has been an enthusiastic rockhound since grade school. He grew up in the beautiful state of Montana where he spent many of his Saturdays rockhounding near the Big Horn River. His field experience has included extensive digging in the states of Washington, Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Utah, Oregon, Wyoming, Kansas and Indiana.
In 2005 Patrick started Northwest Treasures, a business devoted to producing a wide variety of fine geology specimen kits and high quality polished thunder eggs to promote rockhounding. Patrick’s geology specimen kits and polished thunder eggs have been featured in the new Creation Museum gift shop in Petersburg, Kentucky.
Patrick will be speaking twice on Friday and twice on Saturday. Find the times by checking the workshop schedule.
