2017 Rock Painting Party - Golden MO  Dees Dream
Hoppin' and Rockin' !
May 23, 2017



I've printed out lots of photos of frogs for resources to paint by! 

We will be leaving Golden Friday Morning (June 9th) to go to Jasper Arkansas to 'pick rocks' for a couple of hours and then to the Jasper Ozark Café for a light lunch and then back to Golden to start painting our rock finds!  We do encourage everyone attending to pack some finger snacks to nibble on and some water or soda to enjoy while we are painting.  We will begin again Saturday morning to paint to our heart's content and enjoy burgers and dogs for lunch provided by the Dees!  Hope to see you then!

2017 Rock Party
Dees Dream
Golden MO

Hello!  It's time to be thinking about joining together to hunt for rocks and paint rocks again!  Yay!  The dates are June 9 - 10, 2017, same place, same times! 

We will meet at Dees' Dream, Golden, Missouri around 7 am and meet Lin Wellford in Green Forest, Arkansas, probably at the square like we did last year!  We will follow Lin in a caravan to Jasper, Arkansas to one of her favorite 'rock pickin' places to gather rocks!  After about 2 hours of picking rocks, we will gather at Jasper's Ozark Café for a light lunch, each painter choosing their own meal and it will be Dutch treat!  When we have finished with our lunch, we will follow Lin and T.Joe and me back to Dees' Dream and begin painting and visiting!

We do ask that each person bring finger snacks to share and bottled water and/or juice or soda to enjoy while we are painting.  On Saturday, T.Joe (Thomas Joseph Dees) and I will provide grilled burgers and dogs for lunch.

We ask that each Rock Painter donate $10 each for the event which will help with lunch on Saturday as well as paints and brushes to be used both days. 

If you click on the labels on this site, you can find places to stay in this area if you want to be here overnight.  We will have breakfast EARLY but if you want to participate, please bring something to contribute for that. 

We will meet Friday morning here at 7 am and we will begin Saturday morning around 8 am.  Breakfast will be much earlier so we will be ready to visit and paint.

Check back here in case I have added more details!  Hope to see you here!  If you want to invite someone to join us, just let us know so we can be prepared!  Thanks!









Rockin' on!
