Our Gem Show Is Fast Approaching And It’s All Club Members On Deck!
- We 35 to 40 club members to volunteer to help produce the show. I have filled many positions, but we need more members to volunteer besides board members and the regular members that always step in when needed.
- I can not stress enough or emphasize the importance of having members step up and volunteer to help. So please look over the list below and volunteer!
- The goal or reason the club produces a show each year is so the club can afford an indoor lapidary shop. All profits from the show go to two places. First, to provide two grants ($250 ea.) to a geology or earth science student at Green River College. Second, the balance of the profits goes into our savings account for an indoor lapidary shop or to pay club expenses. A gem show is the only way our club can raise significant money to achieve our goal.
- Please look over the areas that still need volunteers. I have broken the tasks into smaller time commitments, so there are no chairmen or heads of any committees. You are asked to volunteer for a specific job or time slot listed below. If you plan to be at the show on a particular day and time, you will find a section at the end of the list where you can enter your name and availability. Then as we near August 15th, you will be assigned a task.
- Please select a task and then email me what it is that you would like to volunteer for:
