After several failed attempts, using metal detectors and ground probes, PM Environmental of Lansing volunteered its time today to help Sparrow, who recently purchased the former Bingham Elementary school property, use ground-penetrating radar to expand the search for an elusive time capsule.
Excitement mounted when the radar returned several hits in the area where the capsule was believed to be buried. Lots of hard work, sweat, and several holes later, however, it only turned up a large chunk of concrete and an old bucket filled with cans and jars.
While the hunt has been unsuccessful, thus far, we will continue our search as work at the former school site continues.
