Join the Mining Team for breakfast and try your hand at gold panning, hand steeling, swede sawing, and jackleg drilling!
The World Championship winning Intercollegiate Mining Team invites you to join us for an early morning on the block (Saturday April 23rd at 8am). Located at Q-lot, team members will coach you through the basics of some of the events that we compete in every year. And if you're feeling confident, you can enter our competition for a chance to win yourself a belt buckle! Participants have the opportunity to learn how to gold pan, Swede saw, single jack hand steel, and run the jackleg drill. Plus who doesn’t love free food?
No prior experiences is needed and everyone is welcome regardless of major or skill set. Dietary accommodations can be requested as well. If you have any other questions don’t be a stranger and shoot me an email.
