=0D=0A=The goal of our show is twofold: to generate revenue to fund the ongoing operation of our non-profit organization, including the lapidary workshop Centre, to spread awareness of the lapidary arts, mineral/rock collecting, and the earth sciences.
=0D=0A=Highlights of our show include: * Dealers and Sales Tables * Displays * Interactive Display Table * Spin & Win * Gem Panning * Rock Hunts * Silent Rock Auction * Closed Bid Gemstone Auction * Demonstrations * Refreshments We believe a rock and gem show should appeal to the public at large and not just people already in the lapidary space. Through appealing to a broader base we can better fulfill the mandate of our club. We achieve this objective by involving the local community, inviting special guests, and anchoring our displays
