Well I headed back out to the POW Camp for round 2 and it surely didn't disappoint! I got there bright and early as the sun was rising around 8am. The day was a bit warmer than most have been lately so I was excited. I was suppose to meet up with some other members from my club at 10am in the next town over but I wanted to get the most hunting in I could for my day off...
I started out near the area I found my last items. I kept using tone mode with no disc so I could listen for the low grunt of iron. This would help tell me where the tents and buildings were set up. I quickly zeroed in on a 30 x 30 area and began working it. Targets started to appear and soon enough I had my first relics. My goal today was to atleast dig up another button and the first one I dug was awesome! I dug the US eagle button and was tickled about it all morning, I couldn't wait to show my club members. I picked a few more targets up and then headed over to meet them.
As we gathered and game planned our hunt, one of the guys had a old paper mill and park to hunt so we gave it a try. Not much was producing at the paper mill and by that time I was ready for lunch. I told them they are more than welcome to come out to the POW Camp if they wanted before I left. They headed over to the park and I was off to Subway. The only disappointing part of the day was that they were out of cookies! lol!
I finished up lunch and called them to see how the park was going... just some clad were the reports... so I offered the POW Camp. I headed out there and began hunting again. I pulled all kinds of goodies, from buttons to coins to tent apparel. The sad thing was only one person decided to come over and hunt... oh well... more for us I guess!!
Any info on anything I have posted would be appreciated however! I plan on making a display and then giving it to the town's historical society museum. The small button that says "US Army" I didn't noticed it said that until I was about to take the picture... I got real excited to see that!! I hope you all enjoy!
