A huge welcome and Thank You to local State Member for Cooper Jonty Bush, for dropping in for a chat, and to see how the various grants to the Gem Club were being utilised.

Jonty was given a crash course in rocks and rock cutting, and given an insight into how our new shed (which was purchased via a grant) will benefit the club.

Hope to see you again soon Jonty !
