It’s time again for our Annual Christmas Party Potluck! Instead of our regular 2nd Tuesday meeting, we will gather together on Sunday, December 8th and enjoy food, good company and a white elephant gift exchange.

The club will provide a turkey, ham, sodas and gifts for kids. We invite you to bring any additional side dish or dessert to share. If you would like to participate in the white elephant gift exchange, we ask that you bring a rock related gift that is worth $20 or less.

We look forward to celebrating the holiday season with you.

Whether you are a current member or are interested in joining the club, we invite you to our monthly meetings held the 2nd Tuesday of every month at 6:30pm.

Feel free to bring any rocks or specimens to share with the club, and as always, kids are welcome.

Our club president will start with introductions and introduce our speaker of the evening. Any upcoming events will be discussed and then we have show and tell for anyone who has recently gone on a trip or that has recently found a treasure they’d like to share. We have a 10 minute intermission and then our speaker of the evening will be the last part of our meeting.

See you soon!

Whether you are interested in learning lapidary skills or would like to start, this is a great introduction to the art of lapidary and our lapidary shop that is available to current members.

Together we will tour and introduce the tools, machines and safety around getting started in the art of lapidary. This will lay the ground information for anyone who is interested in cutting, grinding and/or polishing rocks. Individuals must be 18 years of age.

Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced wire wrapper, this class will inspire and teach you the next steps in leveling up your wire wrapping skills. Feel free to bring any rocks, gems, tools or wire if you have them, or else Rob will be providing tools and copper wire available to purchase.

All members are invited to come and learn, sort and organize rocks we have collected over the years. Together we will learn how to recognize and differentiate different rocks from our previous field trips and get to know one another while helping organize our collection. Pizza will be provided as an additional thank you.
