Was hoping someone else may know about them .... may no longer exist. have checked out some links found elsewhere to a few of these but the links (or clubs) seem to have gone, as the saying goes, west.

Think R Ron is in that area, maybe he can doorknock to see if anyboby's home.

Bendigo, Geelong, Sunbury, Mulgrave are all to far away .... probably need something in the west, even an informal pub meet up.

Cheers Tom
 
Hi Guys,

I have just this week bought my first detector and are hoping to join an active detecting club.
I was looking at PMAV but after going through their website and finding a large majority of links not working I thought they may not be to active anymore.

I live in Eltham Vic so if anyone can let me know of a good active club that would be great.

Wooly
 
Victorian Fossickers - sorry can't help with any details.

Further south is a Mornington Peninsula detecting club ...
 
Gday all. Just wondering if anyone is aware of any prospecting clubs near Geelong. I was told there used to be a Geelong prospecting club however I'm unsure as to whether or not they are still active.
If there are any prospectors out my way keen to go for a swing at some stage let me know.
Cheers

G'day Walshie, I live half in Geelong and half in Warrnambool so am keen to meet others from the geelong area, just getting into detecting and have purchased a machine so keen to get out and about around the Geelong area. cheers Fletch
