were two awards given this month. Neil
Normando received an award for the February Find
of the Month. It was given
for the 10 kt. man’s gold wedding band he found.
The other award was given to Mark Holshoe for his Find
of the Year which was a gold cross on a gold chain.

our club and would like to be able to give people a business card with the
essential information about the club. Steve

business. Richard asked Amy Hart
to look into getting a price to purchase cards.
