Show Calendar

Below are two calendars. One for shows by SCFMS member clubs and the second other shows of interest in Texas, Oklahoma and New Mexico. The dates and descriptions come from the club websites, the Rollin' Rock event calendar with dates and cities, the Rock&Gem website, and SCFMS officers. The Rock&Gem website appears to be a good source, regularly updated.

Some of the SCFMS clubs do not yet have their show information posted on their websites. Send corrections and updates to the webmaster contact at the bottom of this page.
