The shop at Bedrock Supply is closed until September but the Large saw at Morninville is available to members that have been vaccinated. Any government rules relating to Covid 19 still must be followed.

​Next club meeting will be on September 16, 2021. The threat of covid variant has lead us to believe it would not be in the clubs best interests to hold a live meeting at this time. Everyone will be sent out an invitation to a Zoom meeting instead of a live meeting. Anyone that is not a member and would like to attend the meeting can e-mail me and I will have them added to the Zoom invitation (routledge.jim@gmail.com). Thanks for your understanding.

The Edmonton Tumblewood Lapidary Club is a registered not-for-profit society dedicated to promoting the lapidary arts and earth sciences in the Edmonton and surrounding area.
The purpose of the club is:
       To assist the club members in the development of skills in lapidary arts and earth sciences.
  1. To stimulate the members interest in the study of rocks, gems, minerals, meteorites, fossils and artifacts.
  2. To encourage the appreciation, preservation and conservation of the rocks, gems, minerals, fossils, artifacts and natural resources for future generations.
  3. To promote the hobby as a positive healthy family activity which provides healthy outdoor recreation which spans all age groups.
  4. To collect and document and exhibit the gemstone and geological specimens for public display.
 
Club activities include educational and social events. Rock hounding trips are organized during the year, weather permitting. The club provides a fully equipped lapidary workshop for members’ use. Club members are trained in the safe and proper use of lapidary equipment  to make various lapidary related items for personal use or display.

The club publishes a monthly newsletter, Tumblewood Tales, and is made available to all club members.
