Gem Section Meets
Last Monday Every Month
Ah, the jewels of the rockhounding world. Gems come in many different forms, but one thing is usually certain -- someone took something normal and transformed it into something spectacular!
Join us at Gem Section to see rocks when they are all dressed up and even dress up a few yourself!

Date: Monday, October 26, 2026Social Time: 7:00 pm
Meeting Time: 7:30 pm
Speaker: Diana Poppelreuter
Topic: Help for Jewelry Projects
Location: Hybrid (Link on the GMS Calendar here)
I hope everyone enjoyed my talk on Minerals as Gems. It was fun digging out some of my old TN Minerals and showing them off with corresponding gemstones. I hope that we were able to get the sound working thru zoom for the September meeting.
This month Diana suggested that she would answer questions and try and help you thru jewelry problems you are having. It would help if you could let us know your questions or problems ahead of the meeting, so Diana can be prepared to help. You can drop your questions or problems to .
This will be our last meeting of the year. We take off November and December, because the holidays are so close by. This will also be the last meeting as Co-chair for Diana and myself. The Gem Section will need a new chair or co-chairs beginning in January 2027. So far (as I write this NL item), we have not had anyone step up to be the new leader(s) of the Gem section.
As usual, the members who show up early in person at the clubhouse will fold, address, and stamp the T&T newsletter before the meeting starts. I will see that the newsletter gets prepared and mailed in November and December.
