Gold Panning Family Outing next May 2012
Gold Panning Family Outing Have you been watching all the gold shows on TV? (yes, there is gold in Michigan!!!) I am putting together a 1 day family outing for next May 2012 at our farm in Grant, MI. The price per person or family will be $50.00 and you will find gold. This would be a great outing for Boy or Girl Scout troops or any other youth groups. I am taking no profit for this outing. Any profit will go to the Michigan chapter of the Gold Prospector Association of America to help promote prospecting here in our state. It is a great family hobby just getting started here in Michigan. Each person will receive a 14" gold pan, a snuffer bottle (helps pick gold from your pan), a glass vial to put your gold in, and a bag of material to pan (yes, it will have gold in there), plus how-to instruction. For an extra fee there will be Gemstone buckets to search also. You can find raw rubies, sapphires, 20-25 varieties of gemstones possible.
We hope to have a metal detecting area setup for kids and adults.
I am seeing if there is enough interest here in our area to go forward with this outing.
This should be great fun for all! The Price will be $50.00 per kit. You need purchase only one kit for your family to attend. You can share a pan and Gold bag with your family or friends at the outing. Gem buckets will be extra. Extra gold bags will be available for sale. There will be vendors selling equipment used to find GOLD in Michigan and offering their knowledge and expertise.
We can help to get you a membership in the GPAA at the outing.
If you are interested, please send me an e-mail at funyfarm@riverview.net or call us at 231 834 8643 for more info.
