Lost Dutchman 2019 Spring Clamp-Out

The Spring 2019 clampout of Lost Dutchman Chapter No. 5917 + 4 was a great one.

The location was good and all had a great time. We were camped in a campground behind the Burro Saloon (with some overflow across the highway).

We were there to re-dedicate a plaque for an assay office that used to be located at or near the site of the current Burro Saloon in Wilhoit, Arizona and a mirror dedication designating the Burro Saloon as an "official" clamper watering hole.

The clampers are looking forward to the August 10 plaque dedication at the El Rancho Hotel & Motel in Gallup, New Mexico, especially since they can bring family members and the Gallup Inter-Tribal Ceremonial will be taking place at the time.

As a picture is worth a thousand words, here's some:
