Gem Section Meets
Last Monday Every Month
Ah, the jewels of the rockhounding world. Gems come in many different forms, but one thing is usually certain -- someone took something normal and transformed it into something spectacular!
Join us at Gem Section to see rocks when they are all dressed up and even dress up a few yourself!

Speaker: Dion Stewart
Topic: Gem ID
Location: In-Person & Virtual -- Link on the GMS Calendar here
This month Dion Stewart will be showing us how to identify gemstones. He will have scales and equipment to help in the identification at the clubhouse and will be very interactive in nature. You can bring your gemstones to be identified and Dion will walk us thru the identification process.
This will be a hybrid meeting and we will have Zoom up and running. We will have a short power point presentation and then the hands on with the equipment that Dion provides. We will try and show the hands on portion over Zoom but it will be much better and clearer in person at the clubhouse. This should be and interesting and informative meeting.
Zoom will start at 7PM for visiting and the program will start at 7:30PM
The members who show up in person at the clubhouse will fold, address and stamp the T&T newsletter before the meeting starts.
