Summit Lapidary Club Club History
The history of the Summit Lapidary Club began with the organization of the Falls Gem Club in 1946. Twenty-eight years later, the members of the Falls Gem Club decided to reorganize and incorporate as the Summit Lapidary Club. In 1982, the Summit Lapidary club became a member of the Midwest Federation of Mineralogical and Geological societies.
The Summit Lapidary Club has approximately 100 members, all interested in a variety of lapidary arts, such as gem and mineral collection, jewelry making, silversmithin and faceting. Club members have full-time access to the on-site facilities which include trim saws, slab saws, grinders and polishers. Meetings
The Summit Lapidary Club meets every Tuesday evening at 7:00 PM. On the first Tuesday of the month, a club business meeting is held along with a special program beginning at 7:00 PM. Dues
Membership dues for the Summit Lapidary Club are $48 a year. A one-time initiation fee of $25 is required when you pay your first years dues.
