THE MAY MEETING

members arrd guests enjoyed a mixture of
programs of interest to ail. Dave Grix, a member and
profession fisherman gave an insight abcut tides and
how they affect our searches of the beaches. Some
hints he gave included that the best time to hunt a
beach in the shailows was two hours before low tide,
watch for washouts and gullies because that"s where
the rings and goodies collect and be sure to wear
some sort of footwear so the sting rays don't getcha!
During the break members headed outside for a test
hunt put on by Richard. He had ten pieces of paper
with different items pasted to the other side and those
who brought their detectors tried to identify what was
hidden. Only twa or three hunters came close because
a quarter might be combined with a pulltab, etc. It
showed everyone not to be fooled sometimes by what

the detector indicated.

The club thanked Cheryl Petenbrink for bringing
the sodas and Gail Hoskins volunteered for next
month. The members also thanked Irene Lotito for
donating a jar of foreign coins to be sent out west for
handicapped children's hunt. Bob Grubb held an
impromptu auction of a secret object to benefit the
treasury. Kurt Herring bid the final $5 and found
out that he won a 1977 "Pro" detector that still works.
The club welcomed Kurt Herring and Steve Early
as new members.

Awards were given to Tom Lieberman for returning
Erik Kristensen for returning a
silver ring to it's owner.

I

would like to get stories for this newsletter from
members that would interest all. Adventures, funny
things. etc. Here is one from my past:
My wife and I were traveling in the Northeastern
states a few years ago and visited Fort Ticonderoga
which was captured by the Green Mountain Boys
during the Revolutionary War. Along the small road
leading up to the Fort I could see many old trenches
and breastworks back in the woods that must be fuIl
of artifacts from the war. We toured the site at the
top, looked at the canflons, etc. I asked the oflicial in
charge if it would be possible for a metal detecting
group to come in and recover artifacts for the
museum. He said, "No way, this is all PRIVATE
property and the owners do their own searching!"
And I thought it was a National Park. The same thing
happened at Jefferson's home Monticello. That's
private

THE MAY HUFIT
14 members gathered on May 18tr, in Indiantown to explore that historical city. A brief
history of the area and a map were given out and the group split up to hunt the town for
the next 3 hours. They met back at Kiwanis Park to total up the finds for prizes. Harry
Somrners found the most coins (52) and also found a great variety of items such as two
gold(?) rings (one with a stone that tested negative for a diamond), one silver ring, a
Craftsman wrench, two drill bits and a coin from Bermuda. Erik Kristensen found the
most money ($3.40) using his new detector. $5 cash prizes were given to Stacey delucia
for the best toy (a Matchbox car), Dorothy Mills for the most unusual (a finial cross) and
Bob Dobski for the oldest coin. (a 1970 nickel) Gail Iloskins won a prize for her efforts
at swinging a coil after returning from a three month hiatus due to her right arm pain.
A-fter going to a local cafe for lunch ten members decided to stay and hunt sorns more.
More money was found but no older coins or relics after another two hours of searching a
carnivai area, the clld railroad station and the site of an abandoned trailer park. Evervone
agreed that this area has the potential for more searching and the group would like to
come back after the weather gets cooler.

This newsletter is being sent out early because the June 8th. hunt comes before our
meeting on June 12ft" If you are going to the Eollywood Beach hunt and have not
signed up call Linda at 561-791-7682 bv June 5m.!!

THE JTJNE HU]\T
Our club is sponsoring a joint hunt with the South Florida Treasure Hunters Club on
Sunday, June 8ft. at 8AM until 2PM at Hollywood Beach. This is a "wild" hunt and there
will be prizes. There is no entry fee but there is paid parking. Our club will furnish the
meat, drinks, ice and eating and drinking utensils. Everyone from both clubs is expected
to bring some kind of a side dish. To get there take exit 21, Sheridan St., from I-95 and
go east on Sheridan 2.9 miles. Then go south on Ocean Drive 0.8 miles to Connecticut.
Master Meter Parking lot is on Ocean Drive between Connecticut and Garfield St. The
gazebo meeting place is right on the beach in front of the parking lot. As usual, if you get
lost call Linda on her cell phone at 561-352-4068.

Now hear thisl!!!!
The South Florida club newsletter arrived at press time and in the story about this hunt
they actually said this about otr club: "they have a weird idea that they will fine more
goodies than our group!" They call their newsletter the Pulltab Express which is a good
name because that's all our club will leave for them!
