JCCWB hosts Heart Gallery April 17
Many people may have con-
sidered foster care or maybe
even adoption at some time.
Nadine Craft of the Jack
County Child Welfare Board
has announced a reception
called Heart Gallery of North
Texas from 1-3 p.m. Sun-
day, April 17 at the Church of
Christ fellowship hall.
The board will display all
of the portraits of children to-
gether, about 12-18, and have
refreshments. It is open to the
public at no charge.
Craft says, “This event is de-
signed to enlighten, inspire,
and generate interest in chil-
dren who are up for adoption.
Professional photographers
have volunteered to
the spirit of these ch:
apturt
lildrei
and their portraits will be oi
display at the courthouse as
well as local banks and busi-
nesses. Last year, the Heart
Gallery had 84 portraits dis-
played, resulting in 31 adop-
tions. This reception might
result in a ‘Forever Family’
for one of the children.”
The Jack County Child

2007 and is comprised of vol-
unteers appointed by the Jack

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY
The GBM80 Turn Key Mining Project
My name is Dan
Fowler and I
the Dos Amigos
Mine Operating
Company.
Currently we are H|
inviting investors pr. W*’’
to join with us in
our bid to purchase a Turn Key Mining Property. I have been
watching this property since October of2002 and now is the
perfect opportunity.
The current owner processes around five thousand (5,000)
yards of material per season and recovers an average of
between 250 to 360 ounces of gold per year. This has remained
steady for the past 20 years. To date the owner has mined ten
acres of the property and there are 70 acres left to mine that
we intend to operate for our investors.
We can quadruple production by increasing the amount of
yards processed from 5,000 to 20,000. This will translate
into an average minimum gold recovery of between 1,000 to
1,440 ounces of gold worth $1,400,000 to $2,016,000 with a
gold price of $1,400 an ounce. The price of gold is still rising
and experts say it will reach $2,400 within the next year,
effectively doubling the profit estimates.
The Dos Amigos Mine Operating Company will operate this
mine for thirty-five percent (35%) of the mines profits.
The remaining sixty-five percent (65%) will be divided up
among the investors according to their investment amounts.
Investor shares are currently advertised on E-Bay. Search
“Turn Key Gold Mine,” or item #190509615751 and
#190509645037. The seller info is “texasgoldhunter.” All
shares are available for immediate sale. Please contact me for
any additional information you might desire.
