Miami Boomtown Spree is held each year in April. The Town of Miami, located 70 miles East of Phoenix on US 60, is a copper mining boomtown that was started in 1909 and quickly became home to over 10,000 miners and their families. In 1939, the first Boomtown Spree was held, interrupted by WWII and later died out in the 1960's. The Boomtown Spree was revived in 1990 and has turned into a great annual festival.

ALL AROUND MINER AWARD

The All Around Miner Award goes to the miner that has the best over all total in Machine Drilling, Hand Mucking, Spike Driving and Hand Drilling events at the Arizona State Mining Championship (TM).

One (1) point for each placing in the four (4) contests will be tallied for each contestant. Contestants must participate in at least three (3) events to be eligible for the "All Around Miner" title. In the event a contestant elects not to participate in one of the four (4) events, he/she will be given points equivalent to "last place" in that event. Example: if six (6) people compete in the event the non-competitor would receive a score of seven (7) for that event.

The miner with the least number of points at the end of the day wins. (4 first place finishes for 4 points is an automatic win!)
