Just like listed in the news letter, here are the 2022 JALAF Categories! This year we have very broad categories to help have as many participants as possible!


January: Your favorite stone. Any stone, any color. As always, please make sure you have never entered it into the JALAF before.


February: Multi-colored stones. Any stone that has more than 1 color.


March: Red. Any stone that has some red or is mostly red.


April: Purple. Any stone that has some purple or mostly purple.


May: A stone you found and manipulated (this stone can not be something bought) (honor system). For the “found specimen'' category this would simply be any type of stone you have found.


June: Blue. Any stone that has some blue or is mostly blue.


July: Black. Any stone that has some black or is mostly black.


August: No JALAF (Ice Cream Social)


September: Circles or spheres. Interpret that however you like.
