Your Hosts at PMC - Irving "Dudy" Groves - Dudy has over forty years of experience with the mineralization in Oxford and Androscoggin Counties. Having professionally mined and collected mineral specimens in the many pegmatite quarries you will visit, his expertise and knowledge of the area is second only to his Down East wit and wisdom, hard working spirit and overall generosity. He has worked for and/or mined with many of the historically important mining operations and men of the past thirty years. In recent times, he has been mining at Mount Apatite and on occasion has worked for the Mount Mica operation. With his experience, he will help direct your search for the minerals from the various locations you will visit.

Mary Groves - Mary's greatest passion is entertaining friends and guests alike at Poland Mining Camps. Preparing meals in her new kitchen at the Camps' Pavilion, she is famous for her sumptuous, down-home cooking and will even cater to any special dietary requirements you may have. Her love of flowers and gardening often decorate her table and buffet. She is a frustrated rockhound herself, wishing she could collect with her guests every day, but alas her first order of business is to take care of her guest's needs. If you have any special needs, just ask Mary!

Mary and Dudy will make your stay a warm and memorable experience, a rewarding vacation adventure - one you will long remember!
