Park district rules - or lack thereof

Let me be the first to admit that my last show was incomplete. 

A listener called me out, saying "You suggest telling the policeman the name of the person who granted you permission to search the park, but what if nobody will grant you permission?"

So that's what the new show is all about:  How to find out what your local park regulations are, what to do if there aren't any, and how to keep from being told you can't hunt by officials who don't know the law.

Las year was in a town I was not familiar with, went to local park, BIG SIGN, no detecting, must get permit from municipal office, SO, stopped by the office to get permit, they said they never heard of such a thing, just go ahead, well went back to the park, was unloading detectors and getting set up, 2 bicycle patrolmen  came by, nodded, passed time of day, and wished me luck, PHeeeew, well i was going by one book anyhow, seems the sign was not up to date or else the town was not up to date, anyway, I didn' find much anyhow.
When in a unknown town I always check with a local police patrolman or some authority, some towns even take your detector and fine you, I don't go there
