We would like to thank all that attended the November Meeting to see Dean Race and to vote the new officers into office. Dean Race gave a great presentation and explained everything about his camp.  His video was for sale for $10.00. Please contact by e-mail—Goldfev@aol.com . The Club will be holding an outing to Dean’s camp in  Chicken, Alaska starting July 22, 2007.   Now is the time to start planning on going to this Club outing that will be unlike any other.      It was decided that the Club outing would go with their Prospector Package.  Club members would get a reduced price for $1350.00 for the first week.  A sign-up sheet was passed around for interested people to Text Box: sign.  At the January 20, 2007 meeting the non-refundable deposit of $250.00 needs to be paid by all those interested in going to this great outing.              We have over 300 members and would like to get most of the members to come to the outings/meetings/gold shows.                Each month now is Pot Luck, so please plan on bringing a dish to pass.  Also do not forget to bring some canned goods for the Girls and Boys Club.              “Thank You” to everyone for joining the chapter and for your support to make this club a success!!.                                          Diane North     I can’t wait to go prospecting.
