Mark's Treasure Mine
New this year, Mark and his team have added a GEM MINE, MARK'S TREASURE MINE!! We have brought the Gem Mining experience from the mountains to YOU right here in SOUTH GEORGIA!
We are excited to be able to offer this experience to those traveling through our neck of the woods and to our very own South Georgia folks! Give it a try, is there a little Miner in you? A FUN experience for people of all ages and children & teens of all grades! This activity includes sifting for your Gems in the Sluice & identifying the gems with the picture & description. Sifting in the Sluice also offers sensory stimulation while benefiting from a feeling of calm and relaxation.
