Gold Prospectors Association of America (GPAA) has announced its Fall 2016 schedule of Gold & Treasure Shows for Nashville, Dayton, and Concord! Whether you’re a newbie prospector or detectorist, or have been mining  and metal detecting for years, these three shows offer a fun opportunity to rub elbows with some of the best in the business. In addition to browsing the show floor to find the latest and greatest equipment and supplies, meet Kevin Hoagland, host of Gold Trails.

Children 12 and under are FREE, so be sure to bring the kids and the whole family can pan for gold together—and keep all the gold you find! Adult pre-sale admission purchased online is $5 until the Friday before each show, or $10 at the door. Active military members and  veterans with ID are FREE. Saturday shows run 10 am - 5 pm and Sunday 10 am - 4 pm.

Thousands of dollars in door prizes are given away each day—detectors, pans, sluice boxes, you name it! All you have to do is show up and you could be leaving with a brand new piece of top of the line prospecting equipment. Mark your calendars for:

• Nashville, TN  October 8-9
• Dayton, OH  October 22-23
• Concord, NC  October 29-30

Whether young, old, or somewhere in the middle, the shows offer something for everyone and provides the best opportunities to learn new skills, see product demos, and have some family fun!
