EVERYONE HAD FUN FINDING WHEAT PENNIES, INDIAN HEAD PENNIES, SILVER COINS AND TOKENS AT THE CLUB HUNT SEPTEMBER 26. THE HUNT WAS A BIG SUCCESS AND WE THANK RAY HUNT AND DONNIE BAGWELL FOR THEIR EFFORTS IN ORGANIZING IT. TOKEN PRIZES WON INCLUDED HATS, T-SHIRTS, FIFTY CENT PIECES, SILVER ROUNDS, SILVER DOLLARS, AND GOLD COINS. THE GRAND TOKEN PRIZE, A STINGRAY METAL DETECTOR, WAS WON BY MAT KNIGHT. WE LOOK FORWARD TO HAVING ANOTHER GREAT HUNT NEXT YEAR.

AT OUR LAST MEETING RAY GAVE A PRESENTATION ON DREDGING FOR GOLD, COINS AND JEWELRY.

OUR 1992 CLUB HUNT IS NOW HISTORY AND SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN OUR MOST SUCCESSFUL YET AS FAR AS SATISFIED PARTICIPANTS ARE CONCERNED. THANKS TO ALL OF THE MEMBERS WHO DONATED AND COLLECTED PRIZES AND CASH DONATIONS WE WERE ABLE TO SPEND ABOUT $121.00 ABOVE THE HUNT FEE COLLECTED.

ALTHOUGH 92 IS OVER AND DONE TREASURE HUNT 93 WILL BE HERE BEFORE WE REALIZE IT, AND I WANT TO ENCOURAGE ALL OF YOU TO BE PLANNING AND THINKING ABOUT WHAT YOU CAN DO IN THE WAY OF PRIZES AND DONATIONS FOR NEXT YEAR'S HUNT. THE MORE THAT WE PUT IN TO IT THE MORE WE WILL ALL GET OUT OF IT.

LET'S ALL WORK TOGETHER TO MAKE TREASURE HUNT 93 BIGGER AND BETTER THAN ANY THING THAT WE HAVE EVER PUT ON BEFORE.

SPECIAL THANKS TO THE FOLLOWING FOR THE HELP THAT THEY GAVE TO OUR CLUB IN TREASURE HUNT 1992.

TESORO ELECTRONICS, FURMAN BABB PAINT CONTRACTORS, HICKORY VALLEY DETECTOR SALES , INMAN TRUE VALUE HARDWARE, MASCOTT HOME SERVICE, BETHESDA METHODIST CHURCH AND CUSTOM PLUMBING & ELECTRIC

AND TO ALL OF YOU WHO HELPED IN ANY AND EVERY WAY. THANK YOU

SAFETY REMINDER

JUST A NOTE TO REMIND EVERY ONE THAT DEER HUNTING SEASON IS OPEN AND EXTRA CARE SHOULD BE TAKEN NOT TO PUT YOUR SELF IN A LOCATION WHERE YOU MAY INTERFERE WITH ANYONE HUNTING OR EXPOSE YOURSELF TO THE POTENTIAL DANGER OF BEING AN ACCIDENT VICTIM.

I KNOW THE THRILL OF RELIC HUNTING COUPLED WITH THIS BEAUTIFUL AUTUMN WEATHER MAKES THIS HARD TO DO BUT WE DO NEED TO BE CAREFUL AND CONCENTRATE OUR TREASURE HUNTING EFFORTS TO THE SAFER AND MORE CIVILIZED LOCATIONS AT LEAST UNTIL THE SEASON IS OVER.
