Happy New Dive Year to all members. I am pleased of the great turnout for our AGM held this past Dec. 14th. we had 25 members show up and cast their ballots, and a new executive was formed. First I would like to thank all those who came forward to run for positions on the executive, and those who did not receive enough votes. It is important, there being a larger number of members running for positions than the actual number of positions. That is a great indication of our club being strong, as well we have a large number of enthusiastic divers among us, who want to see the club move forward in the right direction.
Your New Executive members are as follows:
President, Todd Vanderklooster
Vice President Gaetan Grondin
Treasurer Eric Racine
Secretary Rob Veary
Equipment Manager Dan Zentil
Chief instructor Mike Hill
TSO Kevin LeBlanc
Activities Coord Matt Charlesworth
Web Master Scott Sararas
Stay tuned to the web site calender for our winter pool hours and activities. For those drysuit divers, the water is still open and a water temp of a cool 36f. If you feel the urge for a dive contact your executive, as some of us are still diving on a regular basis. Hope to see you out on some of our pool nights, and take advantage to try out that new dive gear Santa brought you first pool night of the year is 21 Jan. Hope to see you there.
Sincerely,
Your President |

As we see the dive year coming to an end, the members have had another great year diving. Weather had played havoc on our 3 tank charters this past season. We however were able to get out in July on the river and had visited the Keystorm, the America and had a great Drift to finish the day off.
The dive year started out early this year, as the ice played well for the club. We were able to complete 2 successful Ice Diver courses this year and Qualified 7 new Ice divers. Some of us took the opportunity to get in 8 dives through the ice in total before the ice melted. We had our first Monster Dive this season, which proved to be a great turn out and success. We will have another Monster Hunt next fall, which will become an annual event.

Now that the dive club is in full swing, the club is now open two nights a week for gear rentals. We are open Monday and Thursday nights from 4pm to 5:30pm. We are looking for volunteers from our membership to assist the executive members during these time periods. Let our equipment manager Ken Berube know of when you can assist on the rental nights. The Nights you volunteer, you will get free air. So bring in your tanks and get a fill while assisting with rental nights. If we do not get any volunteers, we will have to go to one night per week for rentals. This greatly reduces the volume of rentals in which decreases the revenue brought in for gear maintenance. So if you feel you want to volunteer send Ken an e-mail.

DSC 3 Tank Charter - 24 July 2011 |

Last Sunday, 24 July, approx a dozen divers from the Dolphin Scuba Club participated in the Club’s first successful three-tank charter for the 2011 dive season. Unfortunately the Club’s first charter, scheduled for 25 June, had to be cancelled due to 20-knot winds on Lake Ontario that day. After a brief stop at US Customs, the divers descended on the wreck of the Keystorm – a large steamer lying on its side in 110 feet of water on the US side of the river. The current was quite strong and an education for those who had never dove in the river before.

As we are entering the 2011 dive season, I would like, at this time, on behalf of your executive, if you are a new member, welcome to our club, and welcome back to our returning members.
We will be holding our Annual Treasure Hunt on the 28th of May at the Nicholson Point Light House Park, starting at 11 am. After the dive and prizes, I hope you join your Executive for a beverage and snacks. (location TBC) following some club business.
