Welcome to the Ohio Detectorists Association (ODA) Metal Detecting website.
A 501-3c non profit with over 160 + active members, we are one of the largest metal detecting groups in North America.
We are located in Southwest Ohio and hold our meetings the first Wednesday of the month at centrally located spots between Dayton and Cincinnati Ohio.
Please feel free to look around our website. We hope you will ask to join us at our next meeting!
In SouthWest Ohio? Would you like for us to search your property? Fill out the contact form below! We would love to save a little more history.
If you have a project where 20+ years of detecting experience might be useful, we are self-equipped and always interested in hearing about projects you're doing - please contact us using the contact form below.
