Picnics and Parties We are a gold club, but we are also a social club. We love to come together for good food and fun, as well as a chance to swap gold stories. We have two main events every year. The annual picnic, and the Christmas party.... as well as other events like ice cream socials.
Member Orientations We want you to get the most out of your membership, which is why throughout the year we offer MEMBER ORIENTATION CLASSES. No matter what your skill level you will gain valuable information from these classes.
From basic skills like reading the terrain, panning for gold, and metal detecting.... to learning drywashing and dredging skills.
Even experienced prospectors will learn more about the club resources, benefits and history... and you may even win a nugget while doing it....
Backhoe Digs and Outings The club sponsors a variety of FUN OUTINGS throughout the year that are open to all members. We have BACKHOE DIGS multiple times a year where the backhoe does all the work, so all you need to do is get the GOLD! When it gets too hot during the day, we have NIGHT DIGS that are very popular. We also host a metal detector COIN HUNT in the fall for all ages.
Equipment Demos and Events Throughout the year we try to stay active educating the community and new members on the various types of recreational mining.
Reclamations Being good stewards is an important part of our club culture. Throughout the year we plan many volunteer events to maintain the claims and repair damage.
