Our Second Club Hunt April 6th,2008 The club members were invited to Brian’s Mother-in-laws home to search for boundary markers. The weather turned out to be wonderful and the club participation was almost 100 % Ten club members went to Brian's mother-in-laws home to locate a single boundary marker. Due to the skill of our members we were able to locate three of them for the lady. After locating the markers, she permitted us to detect her yard and property. This turned out to be a awesome day for everyone. The members found an Indian Head penny, a beautiful Large Cent, Wheaties, a superb Walking Liberty half, and a super Croton Bell 2 1/2" in diameter.. Thank you one and all for a glorious day. THIRD BROWN BAG HUNT APRIL 26TH,2008
We will meet at the restaurant at Sunflowers Corners, New Brighton, PA We meet at 10:00am but if you need to have breakfast come at 8 – 8:30 am.
This will be a woods hunt and it is quite bushy. The parking area will support about 6 – 8 cars. It would be good if we had a head count of how many were coming so we know who to look for at the restaurant at Sunflower Corners.

There was a unanimous vote to make Curt Crocker a member of the Board Of Directors. This will bring the B.O.D. up to 5 members for voting purposes.
The Webmaster gave a report on our website. It had a few minor switching over pains which were corrected and the site is up and running smoothly now.
Curt Crocker gave an update on the hats we are ordering. The lady doing these is still working on the design and hopefully we will have a sample hat at the next meeting.
