I would personally like to thank our home owners for attending our Gold Rush event May 30th. Many of you enjoyed panning for gold with the High Desert Gold Diggers.
They seemed to inspire us to want to join a prospecting group. I promised to get some info for you so you can join a group in your area. Well, here it is!
The site: www.icmj.com/clubs-associations-govt-agencies.php will get you to a great list of clubs. Just click on your state. (I am sorry but there was no short cut for that address)!
www.goldprospectors.org is a GPAA (the guys from TV) site that gives you local chapters. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO “DO” THE BUZZARD SPECIAL. The magazine is good, but lots of ads.
I Googled: prospecting clubs California and got quite a few hits.
NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, NEVER, buy equipment until you have been to a few meetings/outings. Most things can be had USED, at a greatly discounted price. Most clubs have outings and invite guests…you use their equipment to see what you really want. I know lots of people with stuff they “needed” but don’t use!
Any questions, please call me, I would love to help you find your way into mining!
There is gold here in Big Bear!
Susan
