BE IN THE RUNNING TO WIN A GPX 5000 AND OTHER PRIZES

If you want to be in the running to win a Minelab GPX 5000, then you need to join the NSW & ACT Prospectors Association (NAPFA) now.

There are also great coil prizes, as well as a pick and a pan prize for those who join by the end of October. If you are already a member – thank you. You can also buy tickets.
See details at http://www.napfa.net/Win-a-GPX-5000.html

NAPFA is your association – it is not just for people in NSW and the ACT, but if you live in there or visit, if would be great if you can support us.

NAPFA is going from strength-to-strength.

Since formation just last December, we have lodged important submissions to government to argue for improvements in the fossicking environment in NSW and Victoria.

These submissions are:

·         Crookwell Reserves – Plan of Management (Recommendations and decision pending. We seek to have fossicking included as an allowable activity).

·         NSW Parliamentary Inquiry into Regional Tourism (A major submission highlighting the regional benefits of fossicking tourism. The inquiry is still going on. NAPFA attended as a witness in public hearings on 26 August.)

·         Investigation into Additional Prospecting Areas in Parks (Victoria)

·         Sale of Crown Roads – as part of a recreational users’ alliance (with anglers, mountain bike riders and canoeists). New website and consultation achieved.

At the same time we have established NAPFA administratively and financially and increased membership to more than 500. We’ve also attended a number of events to wave the flag.

This is a very good achievement for a new voluntary and honorary organisation. It has also been a lot of work on your behalf!

NSW and ACT fossickers now have a voice, but you need to get behind us to make that voice louder.

$20 membership and you get $20 in raffle tickets for GPX 5000 and coils valued at $7,700.

What are you waiting for? Don’t leave it to others! Time to get off the fence!

Join-up at WWW.napfa.net

Thanks to all those who have already joined!

I will be at Laanecoorie Bash this weekend and can sign you up and organise tickets. Look for the NAPFA Flag! (Eureka with NAPFA on it).

Cheers

Steve.
