We were honored to have Captain Carl Fismer and Brad

stories of seeking and finding Treasure, as well as an
amazing collection of pieces of eight and several books
that Captain Fismer had written (some of it was for
sale).
Captain Fizz and Brad Williamson are offering a once a
month, one day seminar and dive on two wreck sites in
the Keys. An inexpensive and unforgettable experience
at approximately $300. Check out their website if interested TreasureExpeditions.com. Go to Services, and
click on Treasure Workshop! On their website you will

New Meeting Place!
Starting with the May meeting, we will be in the freshly
renovated Garden Club Building. It has been completely
remodeled with a gigantic kitchen with two refrigerators,
dishwasher, microwave, and a Bun Coffee maker! No stove top
due to safety for camp children, but we can bring in our own hot
plates, etc.
It’s also equipped with new bathrooms, water fountains,
television, WIFI, and a movable podium that can be plugged in
anywhere.

The following members need to see Laurie to

From our Secretary
Past Vice President, Public Relations Chair and member Jim Sharp stopped in for a visit and donated untold volumes of treasure
magazines, in addition to some raffle items for the club. It was good to see Jim and the hope from the membership is that he will visit
more often.
Thanks to Cheryl Petenbrink and April Sovich for a great job for Best Finds for the month. The winners of the Scavenger Hunt were:
First Place Jim Perkins (he collected 52 pounds of Aluminum Cans and sold it for $9), Second Place went to Ashley Wedde and Devin
Stehr, and Third Place to April Sovich.
Vice President, Sue Chonoles presented interesting Tips of the Month.
Copies of the Directory of Services for Palm Beach County were received and distributed to the membership; a few copies are left for

parks and beaches, broken down to the Northern, Western, and Southern portions of Palm Beach County. Only a few copies of Martin
