Great Lakes Historical Recovery

Members Good Deeds

Our members from time to time have gone beyond the hobby to assist someone who has lost something of value.  Our club and members take pride in knowing that we are a resource to the local public.  Below are some photos of club members who have recovered some lost jewelry and made some fine people very happy.  The personal satisfaction of this hobby can be very rewarding! 

Lost & FoundText Box: Below are some photos taken as Al Summers was hunting for a 1/2 Ct. Diamond 10 year anniversary earring that Terri lost.  Jeff Berman went out on  Friday and got some hits but couldn’t find it.  When  Al went out, he used a combination of two machines, a Fisher CZ6 and a Fisher Goldbug, he was able to find the lost earring on Saturday.  Dan and Terri where very happy that members of the Great Lakes Historical Recovery Club were able to come out and find the earring that they thought was lost forever.
