April 24th 2022 Field Trip To Fir Road by Pasco (Carnelian agate)

Past Field Trips

On April 24th 2022, we will be going to Fir Road by Pasco for Carnelian agate.  This is a new site for us.  I still need to do a check out.

The idea here is to make a full weekend trip into central WA, Saturday being spent at Saddle Mtn and then spending the night in either Yakima or the Tri Cities and then on Sunday making a stop along the Columbia River near Pasco.
I’ll provide more details at the beginning of April and if you only want to join us on Sunday, I’ll provide a time and meeting place.

Presidents Message

  • Digging It!  May is finally here, and with the snow clearing, the flowers blooming, and the rains letting up a bit (hopefully), that rock fever is hitting us all pretty hard. I hope you all had a great time at the Rock Bingo night last month! The Big Show is Coming! We are now less than two months away from our Cascade Gem, Mineral & Jewelry Show, which will be held June 27–28 at Kent Commons. This is our biggest event of the year, and as I mentioned when I started my term, the people are what make this club …

Meeting Announcements

  • Our own Mike Blanton will bring his expertise to this club meeting program – he will share the tools, tips and tricks he has developed to drill holes in stones and minerals so you can do more with the rocks you find. Show and Tell: bring a rock you’d like to make into something else.

  • Club Wagonmaster and rock shop creator Roger Danneman will present an overview of the new club shop – including equipment, scheduling, stewards, and what you can expect from this exciting new resource.  Show and Tell: bring a rock you want to polish or make into a cabochon (or something you’ve already polished or made)
