AuTSaurus Posted September 11, 2015 Report Share Posted September 11, 2015 As requested, Jim, unless this posting violates any forum rules that I am not aware of...(it is a long one)From the PLP website...PLP, MMAC (Minerals & Mining Advisory Council), Sleepy Bear Mining and American Prospector Treasure Seeker ask you to save these dates for this event:Friday, October 9th thru Monday, October 12thWhere: Sleepy Bear Mine, Randsburg CAThis is a friendly reminder for those who are planning on attending this great event to please RSVP online before Sunday, September 13th. This is in order to properly prepare for the amount of food required for the Saturday night BBQ. If your RSVP event entry donation is paid after September 13th, you are still very welcome to attend the event, although attending the BBQ will require an RSVP by this date.Please be aware, due to BLM requirements, all signups must be done ONLINE in advance. Detailed information and the link to sign up for this year’s Oktoberfest Outing can be found here.We are NOT able to take registrations at the gate. In addition, we need to get our numbers together for planning purposes. The entry donation can either be paid online with any major credit card or PayPal account or in person at the American Prospector Treasure Seeker Store. If you have ANY problems with signing up online, please contact American Prospector Treasure Seeker at 951-676-2555.This event will take place in honor of mining rights legend Jerry Hobbs, the founder of Public Lands for the People. Jerry dedicated many years of his life to fighting for our rights to access public lands. The 2015 PLP/MMAC Oktoberfest event marks the 25 year anniversary for PLP.This event offers gold prospectors a rare opportunity to search for gold on 400 acres of gold-bearing ground that has been off limits to the public. Gold nuggets have been recovered by detectorists at every fund raiser held on this claim, and dry washing is excellent as well. There is ample room on this property for folks to move around and find places that yield good gold. PLP Board Members will be working nonstop at this event to ensure its success, so feel free to stop by their booth and show them how you’ve done in the field.We have a lot of great things planned for this family friendly event. We’re super excited and can’t wait to see you out there! Please move this up your priority list and RSVP today. If you were at last year’s event, you know it was a great success. If you weren’t able to make it last year, you surely won’t want to miss it this year! Please feel free forward this email and information onto your friends, family, club members etc. Any and all help promoting the event would be greatly appreciated. There will be some great prize giveaways as well. Here is the list to date:151S Dry Washer from Keene Engineering Whites Sierra SST Super Trac Detector from PLPGold Cube from Mike Pung & Red WilcoxDry Concentrator from Mad Mining4 gram Gold Nugget from Miners Keepers Pottery Pieces Teri Hudson PotteryGold detector (model TBD) from Whites ElectronicsGold Bug Pro detector from Fisher ElectronicsGold’N Sand Hand Dredge from Red WilcoxCrystalline Gold Nugget from Mountain Man MiningGold and Quartz Specimens from John Howell122 Gram Campo del Cielo polished slab Meteorite from George HaymansSeveral fantastic prizes (they won’t tell us!) from Minelab USAIn addition, Fisher, Whites, and Minelab USA are scheduled to attend the Oktoberfest and set up booths to answer any product questions you may have.We are still in need of volunteers for a variety of functions, including directing participants to camping areas, helping setup food for Saturday night’s BBQ and Sunday morning breakfast, cooking, serving, and other event needs. We know some of you have already stepped up to help; thank you very much. Additionally, if anyone has access to bulk supplies of paper plates, napkins, plastic utensils, paper cups etc. please let American Prospector Treasure Seeker know as soon as possible. This would be a tremendous help to the event. We Hope to see you there,PLP Board of Directors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
