There is going to be a gem and mineral show this weekend at the Live Oak Civic Center. This show is put on by the Southwest Gem and Mineral Society which is a not for profit group. The show raises money for the society to give out annual Earth Science scholarships to area universities and also gives out cash awards to high school science fair winners. This show has been going on for 48 years. It first started on the front lawn of the Witte Museum, then moved to La Villita, later to the Morris Activity Center on the grounds of Joe Freeman and now they are having their first show at Live Oak Civic Center. The show features much more than just rocks and admission is very inexpensive by todays standards. If you have never been to a gem and mineral show you owe it to yourself to check it out at least once. For more information you can check out their website. www.swgemandmineral.org. They call the show the "Fiesta of Gems".
