The states and towns that are listed will be gold-clubs that are associated with the GPAA and LDMA national organizations. There are 105 local clubs in 33 cities, and there are 258 claims in 25 states as well as 10 claims in Canada for their members to use. These are great places for the whole family to spend weekends, vacations or holidays. Other members are always very friendly and helpful, and YOU ALWAYS KEEP ALL THE GOLD YOU FIND !

I have only listed them to emphasize that the GPAA is not just a large national organization, but also exists at local levels over 34 states.
