For those of you who don't always scroll to the bottom of the forums front page....
All events listed are in Colorado!
There are quite a few all over the state and in different months, so chances are you can catch one of em' close to your neck of the woods or during your visit this year.
Events will be updated often, so check back.

We went to the one at the Jeffco Fairgrounds. It was cool. Got to see Dave and Joe and Jack and a whole bunch of old friends. Thanks for the link! We always get stuff in the mail, but sometimes we misplace it or throw it away or the ghost takes it.......
the link is handy. Hopefully we'll hook-up at a show sometime soon!

It seems that RocknGem did a little website changing, so the links I posted were broken.....
But dont worry, I have gone in and edited the links in the posts fixing them.
I also added a few more upcoming events for Colorado next year.

I went to the BV show yesterday, it just a short bike ride from the house, so figured why not. I needed a new scale as I had drowned my old one the first week of diggin' this season. Got one from paydirt Jonny :)
Sad thing is I found out how little gold I'd recovered ( .06 g ) :(:(:( in 6 weeks of work. Time to find somewhere better to dig as snow will be flying soon

Great, I hope you had a good time and glad you found a new scale. I'm sure you wil find a new spot to dig soon, Colorado has many great gold spot just waiting to be dug up.
Good luck and stay safe in your prospecting adventures.

Any of y'all plan on hitting either of these shows?
Not sure I'll be home in time to hit the first one. The second one is the same weekend as the Cripple Creek Satule to Veterans, so I'll be riding up there for that and probably make time to stop at the show on one of the days.

Fantastic Crusty! Thank you for your service! 
Have a great time and enjoy yourself, you deserve it. 
We won't be able to make this show EMac but it does sound like it's going to be a good one. 
I think Mike and Dave were going to try and make it though. Can even get some minerals identified there too!
