Well, I've been wanting to do some metal detecting for quite a few months now but I've been kind of lazy on my days off to get around to it. Today I thought I'd spend some time researching (via maps mostly) some parks within my county and surrounding counties so I could know where to metal detect. In my state, metal detecting on state land is against the law. I wasn't sure how things were at county-level though, so I decided to email the guy in charge of the county parks. I asked him if he could tell me if metal detecting is prohibited in any specific parks or county property, and he shot me back this fancy wording which was an obvious cut-and-paste job from section from some list of park regulations the county has:
Thoughts?
So while it doesn't mention "metal detecting" or "metal detectors" specifically, is it me or does it sound like metal detecting is pretty much banned from any park or public property in the whole entire county? If so, I find that rather absurd because it's infringing with my well-loved semi-hobby.
Thoughts?
