 Exciting things in store for Needles Gem and Mineral Club! We are opening a space at Fort Mohave Treasure Mall. We are selling items donated to the club to be sold to profit the club! Our first open day is Saturday January 28 and Sunday January 29. I will post photos as soon as we are set up on Friday afternoon. A money maker avenue for the club! Items we are selling are slabs donated by the late Corinne More and items from Jim Peterson. ALL proceeds go to the club. Let Sally, Ynez or Ronda know if you can   donate your time to work the booth. The mall is open 9-3 Saturday and 10-2 Sunday.
