Our club organizes monthly field trips throughout the spring, summer and fall. To ensure a safe and enjoyable field trip, all participants must follow the field trip rules concerning safety, etiquette, equipment and clothing. Each year our club organizes a gem and mineral show held in October at the Portsmouth Olympic Harbour Centre. The show features the display and sale of jewelry, rocks and minerals, as well as lapidary demonstrations. Lapidary tools and equipment, and various decorative items which can be made from rocks and minerals are available as well.
Dealers are always welcome to participate at our annual show.
Over 25 dealers from Ontario and Quebec will be present, featuring a wide variety of jewellery, mineral specimens, fossils, beads, carvings and lapidary supplies. The Mall provides free advertising to maximize the attendance and participation of the Greater Kingston community and tourist population. Free admission for the public as well as club displays help draw attention and create interest in this fascinating hobby. Please send us a message with your telephone and mailing address, so that an application can be sent. Electricity is provided free of charge.
