A look
at
KYBONG ROCK FEST,
2007 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. 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 2008, Thank you Rockhounds for making this event the most
popular in Queensland. John &
Cecile. |
