Happy New Year!  Hope 2012 has been good to all of you so far!  The Team Officers have been busy, planning out 2012.  We have some really cool things planned for the year to keep you diving.  And, since it is January, we figured we should let you know what’s going on for the month, so here are the details:

    • Small BBQ after, so be sure to tell Mike if you are coming
    • $2 donation to offset lunch costs, please
  • Team Meeting:  Wednesday, 25-Jan-2012
  • Officers Meeting:  Wednesday, 11-Jan-2012
    • Same location you’re used too, officers!

In addition, the Team Calendar has been updated with information for the year.  There are still some additions to make, but we have a lot of information on there, so go check it out!

As always, we are looking forward to seeing you.  Until we do, get out there and DIVE!

Wreck Alley Trip

Posted by on 27 November 2011, 12:26 pm

November 19 / 20 saw Team Members down in San Diego, diving Wreck Alley.  Great trip with great friends.  We got six dives in, covering the Yukon, the Ruby E, and the NOSC Tower.  Larry B. has posted some of his pictures, so check them out.  The weather may be cooling off, but the diving is still great in SoCal, so get out there!
