Past Meeting Announcement

April 12th – General Meeting: Rock Bingo Night

We will need everyone to bring 3 items: polished rocks, slabs, crystals, clay baby, fossils, cabs, carving, jewelry, or a rock or fossil related item to contribute to our prize pool. Please wrap your donation in anything from gift wrap paper, newspaper, to a brown paper bag.

This will be a great night for the kids! Be sure to bring your kids and their friends, grand kids, scout troops, or anybody else that you think might enjoy playing Bingo. Everyone will go home a winner. 

There will be a charge of $1 per player to cover the cost of supplies. Each person can play 1 to 3 cards.

We had so much fun last year at this event. Let’s all do it again.

Looking forward to seeing everyone Thursday night!

Show ‘n Tell, Raffle and Door Prize: We will forego these for just this meeting.

Presidents Message

  • Digging It!  May is finally here, and with the snow clearing, the flowers blooming, and the rains letting up a bit (hopefully), that rock fever is hitting us all pretty hard. I hope you all had a great time at the Rock Bingo night last month! The Big Show is Coming! We are now less than two months away from our Cascade Gem, Mineral & Jewelry Show, which will be held June 27–28 at Kent Commons. This is our biggest event of the year, and as I mentioned when I started my term, the people are what make this club …

Meeting Announcements

  • Our own Mike Blanton will bring his expertise to this club meeting program – he will share the tools, tips and tricks he has developed to drill holes in stones and minerals so you can do more with the rocks you find. Show and Tell: bring a rock you’d like to make into something else.

  • Club Wagonmaster and rock shop creator Roger Danneman will present an overview of the new club shop – including equipment, scheduling, stewards, and what you can expect from this exciting new resource.  Show and Tell: bring a rock you want to polish or make into a cabochon (or something you’ve already polished or made)
