Dive Club Meeting Minutes

The July meeting of the Westsylvania Dive Club was held on Wednesday July 11, 2007 at Mikes Scuba shop. In case you didn’t get the memo, the meeting was pushed back a week because of the 4th of July holiday. A mixture of members and guests made up the ten people present. First, the Sheetz fundraiser raised $220.00 for the club. Thanks to all of you for your efforts. Thanks especially to Don Shock for organizing the fundraiser. Second, there will be a social gathering at Mike Millers house on Saturday evening on July 14, 2007. It is BYOB and also bring a covered dish. Mike says he will provide the chicken and burgers. Third and lastly, we have some diving opportunities coming up. We will be diving at Dutch Springs on the weekend of August 4th and 5th. We are planning on diving the St. Lawrence Seaway on the weekend of August 11th and 12th. We have a club member looking into dive charters at this moment. We discussed diving from the Canadian side. If indeed we do dive from the Canadian side, you will need a passport. We are working on a date to do the Raystown Lake dive. It looks like it will be no earlier than late August or September when we will be able to do that dive. The shop is planning another Bonaire trip from February 2-9, 2008. There are only two spots left for the trip. Airfare will cost about $535.00. Get your name in for this trip if interested. That’s all for this month. For any information on upcoming dives, please contact the dive shop or one of your club officers. Till next month, enjoy the summer and dive safely.

Site Calendar

Hi all. I hope you have been enjoying some of the stories being posted on the site. There are a lot more articles on their way. I am trying to make sure there is at least something posted at least three times a week. Anyway, to the point. The site calendar located in the upper right hand corner of the site was a free add on from a company called Trumba. That free service is about to terminate and I am contemplating whether to renew the service. Is this something helpful or do you not use the list of special events/meetings. I should tell you that the service will cost the club a small portion.

Thoughts? Comment to this blog, call Kory at 814-695-4666 or email Kory at kory@mikesscuba.com Thanks all

Having trouble finding a dive buddy? Want to go diving but where? Well then join the Westsylvania Divers. We are a group of southwestern Pennsylvania divers who believe getting together either above or below the surface of the water is just plain fun! We started the dive club in fall of 2005. The response has been good and now we are looking to officially incorporate the club. That means YOU get to be a part of something brand new.

We try to plan monthly events which bring members and their families together around the sport of scuba. We have picnics, dinners out, diving activities and so much more. So attend the next dive club meeting held the first Wednesday of each month at 7pm at Mike's Scuba. We hope to see you there.

Please print off the forms and bring to Mike's Scuba.
