About SRGD
The Santa Rosa Gold Diggers is a not-for-profit group of gold prospectors and metal detectorists based in Northern California.
Our goals are to have fun, build friendships and help each other find gold.
Monthly meetings are held on the third Sunday of each month, 1-4 pm at the Franklin Park Clubhouse, 2095 Franklin Ave, Santa Rosa, CA 95404.
We cover prospecting / mining and metal detecting equipment, techniques, gold history, places to go, and share knowledge and learning.
