December's Club Member Outing by Bill Baker

OK...Here it is. Hi everybody, nice seeing you again.  BRRRRR...that's all I can say about our December club outing.  It was 27 degrees and I didn't expect to see anybody show up, but I was suprised when I got to McDonald's to see 14 bundled up hunters.  We went to Holladay Park and tried to dig.  It was almost impossible to get the shovel into the ground.  The wind finally drove us out of there earlier then normal but we did have a count out and there were some coins and other items found. 

Dick Gaboury donated a nice Morgan dollar to whoever had the most trash.  It was a close race but Dan Webb took the honor with 52 trash items.  Dan also won the membership drawing for another Morgan dollar.   Thank you all for your support in 2005.  I had a good time running the hunts for you.  Next year Mike Nanson has volunteered to take over the duties and I'm sure he will do a great job at finding us some good places to hunt.  Peace to you all. Bill Baker
