The Cost of Membership

In reality, the necessary costs of running the Club and sponsoring events, speakers, educational activities and scholarships are largely funded through membership fees, donations, rock & gem show proceeds and our fun monthly raffles.

Rimstones ANNUAL PICNIC June 10, 2026
Rimstones members met in Star Valley on June 10th for the annual club picnic. The weather was great and, as is customary, there was more food, salads and desserts than anyone could eat. In addition, there were games, free rocks, and of course, great company. The winner of the Amethyst raffle item was announced.
Picnic Fun!
Rimstones ANNUAL HOLIDAY PARTY Dec 10, 2025
80+ Rimstones members met at the Payson Library on Dec 10th for the Annual Holiday Party. There was more turkey/ham, comfort food and desserts than anyone could eat. The gift exchange was a big hit. Everyone enjoyed the food and camaraderie. Chelsie won the quartz drusy mega-raffle and everyone was treated to a peridot and red jasper holiday ornament made by Valarie Finn.
Holiday Party Cheer!
