Oregon Gold Adventures has a gold prospecting forum!

That's right, you can post your wants, needs, "for sale" items, opinions and much more. Your OGA team really hopes you have a good time with it.

It's all right there just for you!

It's a very inclusive gold prospecting forum with something for most everyone. If you find that you know of a topic or category we should add please use the "Contact Us" link at the top of the page to let us know!

Better yet, just post your suggestion right in the forum. There's a "suggestion box" category built just for that kind of thing.

Thanks in advance for checking it out. Your OGA team hopes you have a great time with it.

Happy March everyone!

Well, OGA is only one month from the official opening day of its 2010 gold mining season. OGA is, of course, booking trips anytime but the official OGA season starts April, 1.
OGA likes to think of March as the unofficial beginning of springtime weather. Wishful thinking? Perhaps. But it’s much nicer to go out on warm sunny days than rainy muddy ones, right?

Something brand new is about to happen at OGA.

OGA is very excited to announce that there will soon be a new monthly

contest, a drawing for a FREE outing. One lucky winner each month

will win a FREE outing, possibly even including an upgrade to

DELUXE status, which means the winner just might receive the

Miners Kit FREE too! You just can’t get a better deal than that.

OGA's goal is to launch the first drawing in March. There is no cost to

enter so be sure to sign up every month. The next winner might just be

you!

All official rules and information will be available when the contest

opens. So watch our OGA homepage right here for a link to the entry

and good luck!

A gold hoard has been discovered!

Of course, we all dream of hitting 'the big one', the find that makes us financially independent but also something that is of some historical importance.

Well, one fellow prospector has done just that. Terry Herbert, an Englishman, was using his metal detector on his friends farm when, out of nowhere, he got a target. Upon further investigation he discovered that he found more than he could ever have imagined.

What he found was a rare hoard of gold and silver artifacts dated from the 7th century! It was reported that this find might just change how British history is recorded.

Greetings all Oregon gold miners!

We've added a new feature for you. We thought it would be really helpful to let you know what the gas prices are locally. After all, we all budget that into our vacations, right?

Simply click on the link below to find the most current prices in your hometown.

In fact, Josephine County is home to the lowest gas prices in the state! So does that mean you might actually save money by booking an outing with us? Hmmm...

What you say about OGA...

"Just a brief note to thank you SO MUCH for the fantastic time we had learning to pan for gold! You were so informative and thorough in your instruction, and your passion for minerals was totally infectious--John and I have caught the gold fever and can't wait to search for gold with you in the future--..."

"...we would highly recommend taking a tour with you to anyone looking for something fun, different and adventurous to do."

Sincerely, Gloria and John

Dear Gloria and John,

You are very welcome. We had at least as much fun teaching as you did learning. We look forward to the next visit with our new friends!

It's true that we have a passion for the outdoors and for what we do. And it's people like you who make it that much more enjoyable for us.

All the best,

Your OGA team
