At our recent board meeting, we voted to waive the $50 dues for the period of 7/1/21 through 6/30/22. This will apply to current members. If you have already paid ahead, that money will be applied to the next fiscal year. This will be a one-time event due to the COVID situation affecting so many members.

This sounds like a broken record, but the November general meeting and outing are cancelled. Likely December will also be cancelled, but keep checking back. It is still a great time to dig and nuggets are being found on the claims just this very week!

We are cancelling the October activities due to the pandemic. However, the desert claims are open and starting to cool, so keep finding gold in a socially-distanced fashion.

VALLEJO, Calif., September 7, 2020—Most of California remains under the threat of unprecedented and dangerous fire conditions with a combination of extreme heat, significant wind events, dry conditions, and firefighting resources that are stretched to the limit. Due to these conditions, the USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region is announcing the following temporary closures and fire restrictions to provide for public safety and reduce the potential for human caused fire starts. They will go into effect at 5:00 pm Pacific Standard Time on Monday, September 7, 2020, and will be re-evaluated daily as conditions change.
“The wildfire situation throughout California is dangerous and must be taken seriously. Existing fires are displaying extreme fire behavior, new fire starts are likely, weather conditions are worsening, and we simply do not have enough resources to fully fight and contain every fire,” said Randy Moore, Regional Forester for the USDA Forest Service Pacific Southwest Region. “We are bringing every resource to bear nationally and internationally to fight these fires, but until conditions improve, and we are confident that National Forest visitors can recreate safely, the priority is always to protect the public and our firefighters. With these extreme conditions, these temporary actions will help us do both.”
