Membership

Welcome!

The Coalinga Rockhound's Society Inc. was founded in 1954. The club is a non-profit organization dedicated to learning and sharing knowledge of the lapidary arts; studying mineralogy and geology; collecting minerals and gem materials; and providing opportunities for the purchase, exchange, and exhibition of specimens and materials.

Joining is easy - it's $35.00 for an entire year for adults and $10.00 for Seniors over 65 and juniors 14 and under.

Currently, we are establishing a lapidary shop. The shop is available to members where they are able to learn and practice skills related to the cutting and polishing of gem materials.

Check out the calendar and come to our next meeting which are held on the second Monday of each month at the Coalinga District Library. Feel free to contact CoalingaRockhounds@gmail.com with any questions or comments.
