Metal Detecting 101

Metal Detecting 101
What’s under there? Find out about treasures you might find underground at this interactive program hosted by John Dudley, President of the West Michigan Detector Club. With 27 years of detecting experience, John will share various types of detectors as well as samples & stories about things he’s unearthed.
This program is for adults, teens, & kids with an interest in the topic. PLUS, the library loans a metal detector as part of our Library of Things so you can put what you learn to the test later.
Our programs are free (& very popular)! We often have a waiting list; if you register but can no longer attend, please let us know!
