President's Message
2023-2024 Season
Tampa Bay Fossil Club 2023-2024 Season Comes to an End
If you’re new to TBFC
you may not know that we shut down for the summer. TBFC will
host our end of the season dinner on June 8, but there will be no
regular monthly meetings held in June, July, or August. This will be
your last update for this season, so
be sure to check the calendar and field trip pages for TBFC’s remaining events.
Read the Chronicles each
month (Members Only), check
the calendar here on the TBFC website, and follow us on Facebook. Also,
please be very cautious while venturing out into the rivers and
creeks. There’s nothing in those rivers worth dying for.
Closed for Summer
Our season has come to an end. As I have reported to you
many times in the past, it is an honor and a privilege to serve and
represent the Tampa Bay Fossil Club and its many fine members.
I want to thank the great support staff behind me in the Officers,
Directors, and many of you members who volunteer to help TBFC
excel to the exceptional level it has in both the public and scientific
communities. Without all of you, none of what TBFC accomplishes
each season would be possible.
Thanks for the adventure TBFC!
Good Hunting,
Mike Searle

Announcements
Summer Break!
TBFC is on Summer Break! We will resume Meetings in September.
Tampa Bay Fossil Chronicles
Hopefully you’ve noticed that TBFC has stepped up its game with
the newsletter each month. In addition to all of our regular
contributors, we’ve added two new recurring articles this season. “In
Touch with Inverts” by Rob Carlson was added in September. Recently added, “Paleo Analysis” by Steve Vicari.
Each month Steve will be discussing interesting prehistoric fauna and how they
relate to extant species.
Please check out all of the articles in each
issue. Only TBFC members receive the Chronicles, we don’t post it online or on Facebook.
