    Actually, I don't think either day will work for me. Forgot about c mpany coming over Sunday, so will have to be around to prepare for that.

    You folks go hit the park hard. I'm sure there will be other times to get another hunt together.

    Re: Elkhart Hunt may 2 or 3??

    I am thinking saturday would work say around 9am or 10am.

    Its really easy to get to but one of the roads is blocked off so you have to enter on the south side of the island,

    Basically if you come off the tollroad and head south (Left), go to Bristol street turn left go to Johnson st turn right.

    Stay on Johnson till you cross over the river, At the first light turn right and the park will be on your right. there is a parking lot as you enter from there you will see a walking bridge to the island.

    I will post a map up hehe so i dont get you all lost ....

    I will be there at 9 in the parking lot, i will post a map with directions in the morning.

    Its not really a formal hunt so if you come early and want to hunt go for it, there is a park area before you go across the bridge to the island also.

    First thing is you all meet at my shop and bring the normal detecting fee that I require, One cup of Coffee Black. Don't need that sissy sweetner stuff that most like in theirs

    Have fun
