October 2026 Program - Gem Trees - Presented by: Bob & Maxine Dearborn
You have seen them in catalogs and at gem shows, now you will be able to make your very own gem tree. Members Maxine & Bob Dearborn will bring the supplies and instruct everyone at the October general meeting on how to make a gemstone tree. Because this takes some time to complete, you want to be on time for the meeting. Please arrive promptly at or before 7:00 pm. This is a hands-on program and we will all do it together. If you have a flashlight or small battery run light, you might want to bring it with you, to help see the small holes in the rock chip beads.

October Rock of the Month = Generic Rocks
For October, we ask you to bring in whatever rock tickles your fancy and share it with the group. No theme necessary. Any rock or crystal is fair game.
