From the Top of the Rock Pile . . . . - Boy was it good to see everyone after 16 months of no in-person meetings! We had a good turnout. I estimate we had 30 people. 27 members signed in but I think there were about 3 additional people who didn’t make it to the sign-in table. I would like to remind everyone to sign in at the front door. You get a door prize ticket for the drawing later in the meeting plus for insurance purposes, we need a headcount and the names of those who attended our meeting.
- Our club hands out “Rock Bucks” to our young tumblers at every meeting. If they attend they get $2 in Rock Bucks. If you also bring something and tell us about your item during Show ‘n Tell you receive a total of $5 in Rock Bucks for being at the meeting. Our young tumblers can use these Rock Bucks at all our club auctions. They can take part in the bidding process and if they win they can purchase the item(s) using these Rock Bucks.
We continue to have about 5 new members every month. I want to welcome each of you to our great rock club. I tried to get around and meet our new members at the last meeting. I apologize if I missed introducing myself to you. I will try to do so at our July meeting.- Don’t forget to mark your calendar for our next meeting on Thursday, July 8th at 7 pm. We will be playing “Rock Bingo.” We always have fun playing bingo and everyone goes home a winner. Bingo details are in this Tumbler and on the website.
- I would also like to point out our annual club picnic is being held on Sunday, August 8th at the Lake Wilderness Arboretum. Setup is at 11 am and lunch is at noon. We will have an auction following lunch. Check August’s Tumbler or the website for more information on this event.
