Event a real gem for entire family

I took my four grandsons, ages 3 months to 10 years, and my daughter-in-law to the Everett Rock &Gem Club show. Everyone there was so friendly, happy to share knowledge, and kind. What a great impression. The 20-month-old was running around and it was OK. There were kids activities, silent auctions for kids and adults, even a dog that gave one grandson a good face licking. What an enjoyable time. Thank you! You made an awesome impression and memory.
