FRA Rockhounds: An Honor Roll
Kids participating in the AFMS Future Rockhounds of America program
symbolically graduate from "future rockhound" to "full rockhound" status if they
complete and earn at least 6 of the 15 individual merit badges offered within
the program. To recognize and reward them for this accomplishment, they earn a
Rockhound Badge. Following is our Honor Roll of kids who have attained this
status.
