We share a love of Metal Detecting and, most importantly,

we share good friendship.

The President Red Craft called the meeting of the Beaver County Detecting club to order at 7:20pm on Thursday March 6^th.2008

The Secretary read the minutes of the previous meeting and they were accepted and approved.

The costs and the design for the hats were discussed We voted to have them made by Barbara Cashdollar

Curt will bring in samples to the next meeting at that time we will decide on the final design and hopefully place orders.

The website will be switched over and a better forum will be inserted at that time. The present forum is just a practice forum until the actual one that we will use is ready.

We discussed placing a club display in the Ambridge Library. Harry to let us know when we can set it up. The display can stay there until we take it down. However if the library needs the display cabinet we will have to remove the items immediately.

We are having a brown bag hunt on March the 29^th . We will meet at the ice arena parking lot at 10:00am.

On Saturday march the 22^nd Harry, Red & Boobie set up a display in the Ambridge library. We spent a little over 2 hours setting all the items in place. We were surprised at how well everything went and the completed display really looks good.

The library personnel are very pleased with it. I stopped over on Tuesday the 25^th to check on it and the head Liberian said people are really taking time to look at the items and they all express a delight in seeing the display and how well it is presented.

This is one of the photo’s we took of the display. We are hoping that we can draw some new members by doing several of these in the various county libraries. The Liberian asked if we can keep it there until April 25^th. Mr. Laughlin, Son of the founder will be making his annual inspection of the Library at that time. I told her that we will discuss the request at our next meeting.. I have had many emails saying; wow, woweee-Good Job Guys, Very Nice, That’s really awesome and your display looks great.

9. You can keep one metal detector at home and enjoy a different one when you are on the road.

8. If you admire a friend’s metal detector and tell him so, he would probably let you try it out a few times.

7. Your primary metal detector won’t mind if you keep several others for a back up.

6. Your metal detector will stay with you even when your batteries need replaced.

3. A metal detector will never ask, “Does this new accessory make me look fat?”

2. A metal detector does not care if you go right to sleep after you use it.

1. A metal detector will never ask you to put down the toilet seat, mow the yard, empty the dish washer, take it out to dinner, or to get a real job.

10. A metal detector will sit quietly beside you as you watch a romantic movie.

7. A metal detectors penetration depth can be improved by getting it a larger coil.

5. A metal detector will not suddenly look “ashen”, get mad, and throw things when you tell it you no longer want it in the house.

4. Chances are, another woman won’t want to try out or take your metal detector away from you.

3. A metal detector never hogs the TV remote nor will it ask you to bring it a beer.

1. Metal detectors like to give you gold and diamonds and will go out with you without complaint, on your anniversary, birthday … or for no special reason at all.
