August, 2023
We Need Show Volunteers
Our Fall Gem, Jewelry, and Mineral Show is only 1 1/2 months away!
We will be recruiting Activity Leaders at the August Meeting, and they will begin recruiting helpers for all
Show scheduled times. Please consider signing up for one of these opportunities and let Bill Friday or Mike Harrison know your plans.
Membership Reminder
Membership Dues will become due starting at the Show, and the cutoff will be Dec 31st, 2023. This change is put in place to make it easier and less costly for us to maintain our association with the
Southeast Federation of Mineralogical Societies, which, among other benefits, pays for our Insurance Coverage and allows us to attend Dixie Mineral Council Field Trips. These fees are based on membership as of Dec 31st, 2023. Thanks, Theresa Chivers, Membership (rocketcityjewelers@gmail.com).
Return Show Yard Signs
Please return any of the Show Yard Signs which you may still have at home, even ones from previous years, so they can be updated for this year’s Show. They are expensive to replace.
Thanks, Tony Smith, Show Chair
2023 Scholarship Winners
The 2023 scholarship drawing was held at the April 25th Membership Meeting. Congratulations to the two primary winners Becky Rollston and Debbie Epperson! (Matt McCann is the first alternate in case either of the primary can’t attend, and Kathy Bowman is the second alternate in case the other primary winner or Matt can’t attend.)
