Our family of 3 attended the special event that was held at Stratford Hall yesterday. Dr. Weems was the guest speaker. This was our second year participating in the event. I liked it being in June instead of August this year. It was warm but not as hot as August. Tides were decent. Here is what the three of us managed to find. (Pretty good day) Can't wait for next year.

First of all thank you for the join and all the info already published! I've been obsessed with sharks since I was a kid and naturally loved shark teeth. My family that used to visit Florida would always give me some as I grew up and I talked my parents into getting me a meglodon tooth. As of today I went on my first adventure and found me a vertebrae behind the YMCA baseball/soccer fields in Summerville. Seems to be the only concrete directions to a place I can find on google. Unfortunately I am only temporarily here and a full blown rookie. I am here for C17 school at Charleston afb and will be returning to the north east (Jersey) mid December. Was wondering where some other areas I may venture to legally and have some luck? Also I'd love to join anyone that is interested in having me along. I have a car and willing to travel (even pick you up). I plan on trying out coosaw creek by a church tomorrow after school. Just reply here or message me if you'd like to join me or let me join you. Thanks - Paul

Good evening! I've been going through and reasearching some of my summer trip finds this year and I am hoping for a little help! I am trying to figure out what the teeth in this picture are. This website has been incredibly helpful and has provided me with some think I knows but a few of them have me really stumped. They were all collected in Virginia and North Carolina. PLease feel free to correct my educated guesses. The larger teeth have smooth edges. The only one that has some seration is the small, wider one at the bottom-middle of the picture. If you need any close up picture I can certainly provide those as well. I thought the ones on the left were sand tigers but because of the shorter, wider root and "fatness" of the dentin I am considering otherwise. Plus they are not flat with the little upturn toward the end that I always distinguish with sand tigers. I have no clue what the ones with the dark greyish and brownish grey coloring are. (This would be the one closest to the 2" mark and his friends the left at 9 and 10 o'clock. Everyone's help is GREATLY appreciated!!! Thanks again and happy hunting!! Joyce

I went to the Peace for the 5th time in the last 8 days. This time with friends who were really only looking for small shark teeth around 1/2 inch. We went to an area known for lots of small teeth and we all found many Bulls, Hemis, Lemons, and Tigers around that size. I found some gravel and was digging deep -- first I found some nice sized lower snaggles, then a couple of osteoderns (2 Armadillo and 1 Glyptodont), then the biggest , nicest Meg I have ever found, then a much smaller posterior meg, another lower snaggle, and a nice mako. After about 90 minutes, I could not dig deeper without drowning, and went back to find small shark teeth. I dug other nearby holes, but without a similar result. Good things happen when/where you least expect it. Traveling to Thanksgiving dinner in the morning, but wanted to share my joy!!!! Happy Thanksgiving to all -- enjoy your families and friends. SS I also found a fossilized toe bone -- added here to see if someone can ID..
