Summer is a big activity time, We have a list below of future presentations to look forward to. These meetings will continue both on-line through zoom and in person simultaneously for the first meeting of the month.
So far we have had a wonderful picnic (and bingo) we got to know our members better too. I would also like to thank Cindy Proctor for her silver smithing presentation we had so many good questions so I though I should post here about her contact through her shop in case you would like to learn more.

Our next show will be in cooperation with 4 other area clubs and with NFMS (Northwest Federation of Mineralogical Societies) annual meeting, of which this club is a member of. In October this is a very big show. We are currently promoting members and people to create and put in displays. We will also need club volunteers to help support it and of you put in a display or volunteer to help of course you will have free entrance to the show all weekend.
