East Texas Treasure Hunters Association

In April 2015, a local White Oak woman was pushing her son swinging in the backyard. Due to her recent weight loss, her three 14K White Gold/Diamond wedding rings came flying off into the grass. She was able to find two of them but could not find the last one. She borrowed a detector from the school and her husband searched to no avail. A store owner in town who knew our member, Michael Heim, was proficient in metal detecting gave her Michael's name and number to call and see if he could help. After they called Michael, he went over and asked what type of ring it was and about where she lost it. Being a little skeptical, her husband came out to see if Michael could find it while the wife said she felt he could find the ring in less than 30 seconds. Michael turned on his Garrett AT Pro detector and within 10 seconds got a 54 signal and found her ring. She was most grateful and her husband was a little amazed. It's always good to give back to our community. (Great job, Michael!)
