Throughout the four-day period, items will be cleaned, sorted, inventoried and cataloged.  The collection will be scanned into an archive.  Media interviews welcome however, closed to the public.

“My passion and love for Bob is my motivation to preserve and archive as many items as we can from his collection.  Time is critical, as elements are not kind to many of the pieces” - Jim Conkle, curator and dig facilitator.
