23rd Annual Rockhound Roundup Display Cases

Here are the display cases for the 23rd Annual Rockhound Roundup hosted by the Santa Lucia Rockhounds at the Pioneer Park and Pioneer Museum this past weekend, May 3-4, 2014. Be sure to check out Pre-Set-Up Day, Set-Up Day + Day One, Day Two of this show and my Rock Booty from the show.

The two Utahan Petrified Dinosaur Bone cases were my favorites along with Chris Driesbach's local fossil case.

One of our Junior Rockhounds put this together which was quite impressive.
The Rock Mafia Dons, Huntington & Pierce, resubmitted this in an encore presentation given this year's show theme.

This T-Rex is made of local petrified whale bone.










I do believe this case by Lisa King won Honorable Mention.
I do believe this case by Denise Halapoff and Michael Judy won Honorable Mention.

I especially liked this one.
Thundereggs
This case by Chris Driesbach featuring local fossils won Second Place and was one of my two favorites.
A most impressive preparation for this most impressive local fossil specimen.
