Calm Water For The CometWith the wind
and foul weather not showing up, five club members made the journey out
to the Comet for a great dive. With the temperature below the
thermocline at less than 60 degrees there were a few amongst us that
wished they had opted for some warmer gear.
Even with that everyone had a great dive. See you next week. Wednesday Wolfe Dive
Well this
Wednesday's dive on the Wolfe Islander II was scheduled and looked
forward to by a group of divers that have not been there much this
year.
While visibility was less than spectacular, it was kind of
nice
to visit a familiar site we have not been on in a while.
Make sure to get your replies in for next weeks dive on the Aloha when
the announcement comes out.

Resort Search Page Poll Results
With the
results of the poll for this topic being very inconclusive, I will keep
this feature of the web site on line for a while longer.
The
thing that everyone needs to remember is that this resource requires
input from all of our members. If we can't get people to
contribute, there really is no reason to keep it on line. The
results will become dated and of no practical use.
Please also
remember, just because the hotel/resort is listed all ready does not
mean that you can't add it again. In fact
your stay
may have been much different than what is currently listed.
Don't
let the fact that you stayed at a regular hotel stop you from reviewing
it either. If you are travelling and stay somewhere, let
people
know how it was. Someone might just be headed that way on
their
own journey.
Just remember, the more information we have to search, the more useful
this becomes.
Excellent Three Tank Trip
Seven intrepid
divers made the journey to Thousand Island Pleasure Diver today to
partake in the well planned three tank dive. Those divers
were
joined by a group of three from Carleton Place for two of the dives,
the Keystorm (with fewer divers in the water) and a bottle scavenging
trip behind Singer Island. After heading back to the dock to
allow our new friends to depart with their treasure (a really nice
torpedo bottle) and letting one of our number opt for the two tank
option, we headed to eagle point for the a drift dive.
While the
surface was somewhat choppy from the boat traffic as well as the ever
present poker run boats, the time below the water along the wall was an
interesting dive with numerous bass, a couple of large catfish, and one
carp that liked to play chicken with passing divers.
Thanks to
the Activities Coordinator for arranging this great dive day on the
water. And thanks to Ashley for bringing those wonderful
brownies
and muffins.
I am beginning to think that we have to institute a
new executive position "Member In Charge of Delicious Baked Goods"
whose responsibilities will include making sure we have adequate
quantities of cookies, brownies, muffins, etc). I can think
of at
least two people to nominate for this job!
Members Resources Page
Don't forget that
the Members Resources page contains information and downloads on
everything from the HMCS Terra Nova reefing to log sheets and other
useful documents.
It even has the boring stuff like executive meeting minutes and AGM
minutes as well.
If you can't link directly to a page from the web site side bar, you
can probably get to it from this page.
