Penny Dive

[bbdude]

Hi All - Anyone host a penny dive for kids? We did this when I was a kid. We’ll have 10-15 kids participating and throw in a few hundred pennies.

Is this a good idea? Any issues I should worry about? I searched and didn’t look like anyone has asked about this recently.

I don't see any worry about it so long as your pool is TFP clear! Just make sure they have something to put them in after they find them LOL

That’s a good call out! Had not thought where they will put them all

I am seeing NON-glass bowls with their names on them so they can keep and cash in what they bring up.

Just be sure that ALL the pennies are removed from the pool when done. They are no longer all copper and, if left on the bottom, will cause staining.
