Boys&Girls Club
The First Lapidary Class
L-to-R: Malina Kirsch, Lester Mears, Breanne Bird, Foster Thompson,
Kristal Van Selus, Isaiah Dewan, and Gabriel Sagers
In April 2008, in cooperation with the
Boys & Girls Club of the North Olympic Peninsula
(Carroll C. Kendall Unit), we began a six-session introductory class in lapidary at our shop on Hooker Road. Our first group of five began attending three-hour sessions on Thursday afternnons, learning to cut and polish rocks and semi-precious minerals.
Gabriel Sagers and Isaiah Dewan shape obsidian cabochons on the 220-grit wheels.
Malina Kirsch and Breanne Bird work on the 400-grit polishing wheels.
