Chris informed me that our 2” Chameleon Dredge from Angus MacKirk was in and proposed that rather than coming down to the shop to pick it up, that we take delivery the following morning at the dredge session he was sponsoring for Prospectors Plus members on Olney Creek. This was fantastic news. Not only would Angus and I have a dredge of our very own to play with, Chris also graciously offered to show us how to set everything up, demonstrate some basic dredging technique and a find us a good spot on the river to get wet in. I greedily accepted the offer and quickly placed a call to Angus to give him the good news and for a minute thought that in his enthusiastic agreement to join me on the river that he slipped into rapid fire Chinese (which I don’t understand).

In the most recent edition of our monthly newsletter, all active Prospectors Plus members should have received a new membership vehicle sticker. Please use the sticker on your rig so we have an easy way to identify our members on the claims. If you would prefer to not put the sticker on your rig, please place it on your dashboard so it is easily visible from the outside. Thanks for helping us keep our claims open and available to our members.
