And here’s a close-up of what everyone was looking for:

Edgar Banks Relic Hunt Medallion by you.

WHO IS EDGAR BANKS?

Dr. Banks was the first person to search for Noah's Ark and the first American to cross the Arabian desert (on a camel, no less!). Dr. Banks retired from archaelogy to Eustis, where he set up a movie production company and lived for 24 years. The Eustis Historial Museum has an entire room devoted to Dr. Banks, a man many believe was an inspiration for the Indiana Jones character.
FUN FOR ALL AGES!

The RELIC HUNT is open to all ages. But if the person who finds the medallion is under 18 years old, their parent or guardian must claim the prizes for them at the Eustis Chamber (352-357-3434).
