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!

No Meeting in December

No Zoom this month. There will not be a Gem Section Meeting in December because of the holidays being so close. We will resume our meetings in January 2025

We will figure out a way to get the Tips and Trips ready to mail.

I hope everyone has a happy holiday season and we will see you in January 2025.

Jay Gorday and Diana Poppelreuter
