The N Ca SME Section visited the Kennedy Mine in Jackson, CA on Sunday, November 7. Members brought their families and we had 33 participants, including 4 kids. Special thanks to Chris Johnson, our Program Chair and Doug from the Kennedy Mine Foundation. It was great to finally have a face to face meeting.
