California Surveyors Forums

Let me add a thank you to Brian Christensen for sending in his two tags.
One from CA and one from NV. He is the first to send in dual tags, and the first Nevada PLS tag we have received. Since the Mt. Diablo Meridian does cover all of Nevada, this is much appreciated.

Thanks again and keep the tags coming!!!

Well it is a new year and Conferences are right around the corner, starting this Friday January 25, 2013.

Are you attending the upcoming CSU Fresno Conference? Have you donated one of your 3/4" brass tags to the Mount Diablo Surveyors Historical Society brass tag collection?

We would truly enjoy your donation of a brass tag to add to our collection. Please consider stopping by our booth while attending the CSU Fresno Conference to see what we have going on and donate one of your brass tags.

If your not attending the Fresno Conference, you can mail one to me, and it will make it into our collection.

Thank you,

Have you filed and RS on that collection you have yet?

Thank you goes out to John Coffey, John Koroyan, and Russell Marks for donating a brass tag to the MDSHS Collection.

So it has been 15 years since this was last brought up to the top of the CLSA Forum! It is now 2026 and we still have a collection of brass tags.

We are in the works to construct a post for you to add Your Tag to the collection. If you have not donated a 3/4" tag or 1 1/2" washer and would like to, please make note and bring it with you to the 2026 CSU Fresno Geomatics Conference later this month. Stop by our booth and donate, thanks!

Great idea Phil, thanks! That said, I have attached the 2026 Membership/Renewal Form for all to download.
FYI, MDSHS.org is an old system so there is no direct link to open the pages. To open, simply right click and open in a new link.
We are in the early works to revise and create a new website, but it isn't going to happen overnight.

Keith, I plan on attending and will bring one of my tags for MDSHS, I will also bring on of Hal Davis's tags.

A big thank you goes out to Michael Quartarolis (LS 4450) for mailing a 3/4" brass tag to MDSHS, and it will be added to the collection.
