Dallas Geophysical Society – Spring 2026 Updates

Dear Members and Friends,

We’re excited to kick-off Spring 2026 with a full slate of technical talks and networking opportunities. The Dallas Geophysical Society remains committed to fostering a vibrant professional community, and this season’s program promises engaging learning, valuable connections, and plenty of fun. Whether you are a long-standing member or joining us for the first time, we invite you to participate in these events designed to spark innovation, collaboration, and camaraderie among geoscientists and industry professionals.

We’ve put together a robust schedule of technical luncheons featuring leading experts who will share the latest developments in geophysical research, data analysis, and practical case studies. These sessions are perfect for expanding your technical knowledge and discussing emerging trends in our field. Alongside our educational programming, we have planned a series of social activities, from the Spring Shotgun Tournament to our ever-popular Fall Social and Golf Tournament. These events offer a relaxed setting to meet fellow professionals, share experiences, and celebrate our community’s achievements.

We encourage all members to take advantage of our networking opportunities, participate in the membership drive, and invite colleagues to join our society. New members will be eligible for a special $150 gift card prize. Luncheon fees include discounted rates for students. The success of our society depends on your involvement and enthusiasm—let’s make Spring 2026 a memorable season together!
