Hi all,

Just a friendly reminder that it’s all back on again at the Mitchelton & Districts Gem Club this Thursday (16th of Jan),

We will be having a lovely morning tea at 10am with lots of rocks on sale upstairs.
We will be opening the workshop at 9am-12pm as per usual.

We’d love to see you all there!

Thank you very much again to all the volunteers that helped us get the club back online. We would not have been able to do it without all of your help.

Kind regards,

Elise
