Hmmm, sounds like a bit of fun to be had. I might just have to come up and try some of the fun.

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.

i know if you are part of camper USA or something its 22 a night, but don't qoute me spoke with some folks in a large RV. you will have plenty of time to cal and get things situated...stay tuned...gregg

Gregg, I like looking for & finding Indian artifacts. Are you aware of any locations in the area of the hunt?

We are planning to attend this event just am not sure if we will be camping or grabbing a hotel room in the area. My girlfriend tried my detector a year ago and is hooked. We are buying her one (lighter than the BH Quick Draw II) as she is eager to get into this new hobby. Looking forward to Feb. now :) . Oh yeah, motel we are looking at has a hot tub, big sell for her.

I am looking for somewhere south to go for the week in February to get away from the brutal Pittsburgh, PA weather. I was thinking about the Carolinas, but might head to Florida. Would be flying in instead of driving down, so I'd have to figure out a way to get me 2 detectors and other extras there since I doubt I could fit them all in my carry on. hate to have to check them in and have them turn up missing when I get there, you know?

You could hook up with someone here and ship them via ups, might actually save money and potential theft
