Steveo posted this, but he was concerned about not wanting to spam the forum, which I told him not to worry about, and he buried it somewhere, so I'm bumping it for him.

Joe
That sounds like lots of fun! Wish I was in the area. Nice to see people getting together for a weekend of fun having the passion for the hobby. Thanks for sharing and I would love to hear about someone's experience that attends. Hope everyone has fun and its a beautiful weekend. GL HH!
THAT....looks to be some serious fun.
Good luck with those hunts, enjoy the hobby!
Just wanted to give this another bump, so as many members & guests as possible will see it. Hope it helps Steve out.

Joe
Best of luck Steve! If I could go, I would!!!

BUMPERINO!
Thanks Joe for reposting it for me I just forgot.
This is a lot of fun and a lot of work for me and the club members who work together
planting coins, running raffles, and just keeping things running smoothly.
We normally have about 90 people attending from all over the USA

I'm sure it is a lot of work, Steve, but, like me, you do it because you love this hobby, and the satisfaction you get from seeing the smiles on the participants faces makes it all worth it Yes

One day, when we're long gone, we probably won't be remembered for what we took, but instead, what we shared Wink
