Bringing back memories deb55.

Funny thing is my best friend found it along with her first Merc. I make walking sticks for Boys Scout and Eagle Scouts.

See if your friend will allow you to attach it to one of your Scout walking sticks; then present the stick as part of an award--with the history of the slide.

Great idea. I did make one for a man whose son gave me his slide and I attached it to his stick. Very special moment.

I also,am visiting a Boy Scout camp in August, and will see if they let me detect there.

It took 12 years before I ever found one, then found 2 the same day in 2 different parks.
