  A look at

KYBONG ROCK FEST, 2009
Once again our annual Rockfest was a huge success. This Fest has grown from an idea to get Rockhounds together for a fun-filled three day campout to a huge event. Stall holders from around Australia attended this year for the campout. The weather was perfect and sunny as Queensland always is! 
A large crowd of spectators visited the Show to stock up on the variety of rocks, fossils, and minerals that were available from the many stall holders. Entertainment was supplied by local bands, artists demonstrating weaving, pottery, gold panning, sapphire sieving, crystal healers, Aura photos, massage, Reiki and lots more. Then the huge campfire was lit and the indian drums sounded until late at night with singing and dancing while the rockhounds enjoyed talks on Mineral deposits and how to locate these anywhere on earth with our local  Mineralogist.   Also a slide show and talks on our famous Agate Creek Agate deposits and the beauty of Agates under the microscope by Sir Paul Howard.
The atmosphere for the weekend was an unbelievably happy one. We all look forward to next year's Fest on first weekend in August 6th-7th-8th-2010
Thank you Rockhounds for making this event the most popular in Queensland.   John & Cecile.
