Established in 1937, the Dana Club is the oldest club on the 最靠谱的十大棋牌游戏 校园. This student organization sponsors guest lectures, arranges informal field trips, and engages in several fund-raising activities to support 地质 scholarships 特殊项目. The club accepts donations of rock and mineral specimens to prepare as study material or sell at the PCC flea market. 与 biology club, the Dana Club established and maintains a rock and cactus garden on 大学校园.

Traditionally the Dana Club has sponsored many field trips to areas of geological 对美国西部的兴趣.S. Recent trips have included the Nopah Range of eastern California, Santa Cruz Island, the Long Valley Caldera, and Catalina Island.

达纳俱乐部 also has a long-standing tradition of assisting the Mineralogical Society of Southern California in hosting an annual gem and mineral show. 现在被称为 California Show, it is held each year at the Pomona Fairplex in November.
