Great News! We have participated in Naidoc week thanks our Member Denise Ezzy in the past few years and it is on again this week. Each time we have enjoyed our time greatly. We have helped children, young adults and all participants learn about rocks. We have learning games for the kids. And we love doing it. I hope you will come for a very enjoyable day.
From the home page of the official NAIDOC home page:
“NAIDOC stands for National Aborigines and Islanders Day Observance Committee. Its origins can be traced to the emergence of Aboriginal groups in the 1920′s which sought to increase awareness in the wider community of the status and treatment of Indigenous Australians.
NAIDOC Week is held in the first full week of July. It is a time to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history, culture and achievements and is an opportunity to recognise the contributions that Indigenous Australians make to our country and our society.
We encourage all Australians to participate in the celebrations and activities that take place across the nation during NAIDOC Week.

Please do not forget our exhibition! Much like the Sydney Bead and Button Show, the Sydney Quilting Show, and our various Lapidary Shows and Markets our exhibition is the place to be for beads, findings, stones, handmade crafts, mineral specimins and tools.
We excel in opals from all over Australia. You get a chance to meet our club members meet vendors of beads, minerals and tools and or that unusual stone. If you have jewelry you need to identify and /or fix bring it along. We have several knowledgeable members who can help with that too.
