This is an informal, Whatcom County based social group intended for enthusiasts of rocks, minerals, and lapidary. No BS, just rocks!
When this group started in January, we were funding our club with your generous donations. In the near future, starting July 1, 2026, membership will cost $20/individual or $40/famly. Please visit the "Membership" page for more details.
We offer jewelry and lapidary classes Thursday - Saturday. Find out more and reserve a spot in one of our many lapidary courses on the "Classes" page.
We had our first impromptu field trip of the year on Friday, January 9th. Five individuals carpooled to Baker Lake at Mt. Baker, WA near Swift Creek to hunt for blue agates and jasper. We've also visited other club's gem shows, and did a dig at Walker Valley in Big Lake, WA. We recently carpooled to the Everett Rock and Gem Club's show in Monroe, WA. We did a June field trip which was a rock drop on Saturday, June 13th. Most recently, on Saturday, July 18th, we did some beach combing on a beach at Whidbey Island, WA.
Our next field trip is: Friday, August 7th to a Rockhound sale in Marysville, WA.
Until further notice, the club's tools and equipment will be hosted at Trevor's house, in a secure storage shed. Classes will be held here as well. As a group, we continue to pool our funds in an account housed at Boeing Empoloyees Credit Union (BECU.)
Our latest club acquisition was a Lot-O brand vibratory rock tumbler.
Our next step is to focus on membership growth and consistency with meeting attendance. Everyone who has participated so far has contributed to the success of this new adventure; thank you to all of the Rock Lickers for making this club what it is:
This is an informal group of like-minded individuals who love and want to learn more about rocks.
Get in on the ground floor of a new endeavor, and let's continue building something great together!
