Thursday, January 11th – General Meeting

Bob Pattie is sick and can not do the planned meeting on map reading.

Our new topic will be:

TUMBLING

We will discuss three types of tumblers.

  • Lot-O Vibrating Tumbler by Kat
  • Small Home Rotary Tumbler by Mark
  • Large 4ft. Outdoor Tumbler by Mike

We will have a Q & A session on tumbling plus hopefully solve any problems you may have tumbling.

 

Show ‘n Tell: A fossil or concretion.

Looking forward to seeing everyone at our 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)
