Back in the winter our club passed the hat and got a detector for kid who wanted to learn to hunt treasure. Tucker has many medical and physical difficulties. As you can see in the pic he also has a tracheotomy. Today was his teaching and learning day. He was very excited. First I showed him how to swing and then how to scoop as we were in a sandy tot lot. Unfortunately someone had been there and nabbed most of the coins. But I came prepared with several foreign coins and US coins too. As we went along I planted coins and he was excited by each one he found. Sometimes I had to swing and he would dig, and vice versa. This was a very fun and enjoyable time.
