On Saturday, May 8 we held our beach hunt at Treasure Shores. About 1000 pennies and silver coins (including a Silver Dollar) & old coins were planted. The silver dollar was found by Ryan. Prizes were also given for specific coins 1 Ace 250 for a shielded nickel won by a new member Mike Holveck, 1 canvas accessory bag for a flying eagle and 1 leather accessory bag for a V nickel. Frank Hanson found the most pennies (166). Richard bought chicken, and everyone’s covered dishes were great. We had Mexican lasagna, salads, fruit and desserts. Thank you all for bringing the nice assortment of foods.

Jan King was awarded a certificate for her Find of the Month in May which was for jewelry she found.

Richard Hart       donated 2 water bottles and 4 bottle coolers as drawing prizes. He also reminded everyone to make sure to carry water with them to hunt due to the extremely hot weather.

Richard displayed a new box that will be used for the next Benefit Hunt 2011 and explained that we’ll also be using it to conceal the prizes for a surprise, progressive raffle held by Mitch.

Mitch gave us an update on Ray. Since then the former President of the Orlando Club has passed away. He will be missed.

Richard announced a new member to the club. Daniel and Amy had an eight pound baby girl on June 1^st.
