'08 Colorado State Gold Panning Champions


Breckenridge, Colorado and the Colorado State Gold Panning Championships





Here is the list of the winners for you. We had a fabulous three days in beautiful Breckenridge, with sunny days and very few showers. Competitors came from around the country, and we saw several new pans in the California style competition. They were good enough to win, too! Thanks to all of the competitors and the volunteers who put in numerous hours on their feet on cement to pull this competition off. And NOW...Here They Are!
