The Feather River Lapidary & Mineral Society, Inc. would like to congratulate the top 3 winners of our tumbling contest. We had 4 awesome judges: John, Dawn, Shawna and Daniel. It took them 5 long hours. This was the closest scoring contest we’ve ever had, hands down. That tells you all just how much time and effort you all put in to this year’s contest. Thanks for participating and keep an eye on our website for the application and rules to be posted coming soon.
