I'm very interesting on attending this hunt...that is if I survive CTH5. LOL! Gregg, put the spouse & I on your list of attendants. Will bring some King Cakes too!! By that time, I'll be ready to get out of the cold and head somewhere warm and sunny Florida sounds like the place to be. :hello2:

I'm in for sure. What kind of property is it and what will be the main course of the evening (relics or coins)?

Sorry I replied to the wrong thread before. My wife and I would be very interested in attending the event. What is the price for camping - we have a 5th wheel camper.

My wife and I are very interested in joining/attending this event. We would be interested in staying in an RV campsite if possible. Could you let us know what the rates will be?
Thanks
Jonnie

Me and my daughter Shiloh planted all the Buff Nics , lmao , little to know how many years of pulltabs , etc. that had built up over the years there . As far as I know , only 2 out of the 90 or so nickels were found , Baggins found one and Shiloh found one . Heck , I planted them and couldn't find one !!! Miss you all and hope to make another hunt some time .
