The Langlois Lions Club is once again hosting “Get Rockin’ in Langlois,” a small-town fair for rock enthusiasts and beach lovers, on Saturday, April 11, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Lions Club, 48136 Floras Lake Loop. Last year’s event was a huge success and the first of its kind in southern Oregon, drawing strong crowds thanks to its welcoming, family-friendly atmosphere.

Admission is free, with donations appreciated or the option to purchase raffle tickets. Children will receive a free agate upon entry. The raffle features items donated by local businesses, artisans, Art by the Sea, and event vendors, with two winners and two baskets this year.

Featured speakers include Geoff Ogle and Matt Vegar presenting a rock identification tutorial from 9 to 10 a.m., Kent Gibson, a nationally recognized fossil expert and Katherine Palmer Award recipient, sharing “My Fossil Journey” from 10:30 to 11:30 a.m., and Cody Easom leading a rock tumbling discussion from 1:30 to 2:30 p.m. Experts will be available all day to help identify rocks and fossils.

New this year is Danielle from Cliffstone and Gems in Winchester Bay, offering expertise and games for kids. Calvin Davis of Far West Lapidary will demonstrate cabochon cutting, with additional members participating as vendors.

Enjoy homemade doughnuts and cookies from Spoon Café, along with beverages. Lunch will feature an outdoor barbecue fundraiser benefiting the local volunteer fire district.
