Hello all team Whites Members we got a week until the big hunt and we have some special information for all team members to see before the hunt.

This is Jacob Malherbe here your Team Whites webmaster. I have just posted some information that is intended for Team Whites Members only so I have chosen to put the password in a Cryptex that will take 5 min for your to crack, this has been done so the other teams cannot see what we are talking about and what our plans are. Its of course also done so you can start your treasure hunt today.

On the top bar of this website you will see a new section called Login

When you go to this page it will ask you for a password, this password you will find by breaking the cryptex below. Click on the picture and it will bring you to a website where the cryptex is located. This website is pretty cool also and afterwards you might want to go back and check it out. But for now I need you to get the password and login to this page so you can get the important information for team whites about next weeks hunt.

Name: Justin L. Vesser
AKA: VthePresident
State: Alabama
Years Hunting: 4
GNRS Detector: White’s DFX
Biography: I live in Birmingham, AL, but I am from East Tennessee and have family in Central Virginia, and I hunt in all three areas. I have searched civil war sites and old gold mining camps, but I am really looking forward to searching for older parts of American History. My favorite finds include a Southern Cross of Honor, which was awarded to Confederate Veterans, which I was able to return to the grandson of the soldier, and a silver pocket watch case with maker’s mark from 1794. This will be my first GNRS, and I can’t wait to see Team White’s win!

Reg Pitt

whites — Wed, 23 Dec 2009 20:42:15 +0000

Hello, my name is Reg Pitt and I live in central Ohio. I’ve reactivated my metal detecting interest over the last 5 years or so, after a very long hiatus. I’m a retired history and psychology teacher and have a very lovely, understanding wife of 38 years who beach/surf detects in Venice, Fl. with her Whites Surf Pro I. I also have 2 little grandsons, 1½ & 3, who are already brainwashed Buckeyes and, if I have anything to do with it, soon to be history buffs.

Detector: I used an MXT at the N/S in Va. and at the GRD in Conn.

This is my first GNRS and hopefully not my last. Good luck to everyone!
