About this Event
Join us in panning for gold! The Idaho Museum of Mining and Geology will set up this event in the courtyard of the Women's Pr*son at the Old Pen in east Boise. This Panning experience is provided by the Nampa Gold Prospectors. They are true prospectors and will teach both children and adults how to pan for gold. FREE for Youth and IMMG museum members. $5 plus Eventbrite fee for all adult nonmembers of the museum. Everyone must register even if you don't pan for gold. This is great fun for families and you might strike it rich!
Perpetua Resources will be set up with remote-control excavation trucks, waiting for a child to take control!
SME (Society for Mining, Metallurgy and Exploration) will set up cool stuff for kids with freebies!
You'll also want to go inside the museum to discover the interesting and beautiful exhibits that tell the story of Idaho. Every child gets a free mineral!
Updog Hotdogs will be set up by 11:30 AM to sell you a delicious lunch so save room.
