The show is called Hidden Treasure and when you are here you will experience all the treasure we can find for you.
The field trips we have planned are superb and if you don’t have a vehicle we will do our best to match you with one of the locals. All of these trips are planned after the show so you won’t miss any of the other activities. There are two different trips to tourmaline mines and also our wonderful and bountiful Mojave Desert. This area is on the list to be closed to us so now may be your last chance. The exact dates and info are listed below.
We will have over 40 dealers with everything your heart desires and more.
There are world-class speakers lined up for the weekend. Bob Jones of Rock & Gem magazine and the knowledgeable Walt Wright who we are lucky enough to call a member of our club.
The competition will be fierce and the displays spectacular. The demonstrators are anxious to show you all they do and hopefully spark your interest in something new.
The social activities are measuring up to be loads of fun. I guarantee you have never had a past Presidents luncheon like this one. You are going to love it.
The Cracker Barrel on Friday night is going to be a pirate debacle. There will be a treasure hunt, food and good company galore. But be prepared someone may have to walk the plank...
The awards banquet is going to be a Mexican Fiesta complete with dancers, music and of course the traditional authentic food.
It is our hope that you will enjoy yourselves and take home priceless memories of your time at The Hidden Treasure Show.
