APRIL PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

President’s Message

Happy April everyone! Spring weather is finally with us and hopefully corresponding sea temperatures rising. My next planned dive will be in mid to late April and I’m hoping for a rise in the water temperature.

The annual pig roast will be held Saturday, April 15 at 6:30 at the VFW. It is always a fun party for us, for the pig, not so much. Don’t forget to bring either a side dish, appetizer or dessert and a big appetite. Once again, feel free to bring guests, the more the merrier. Unlike the holiday party, we are not allowed to bring any alcoholic beverages. The club, a usual, will provide beer, wine, soft drinks and water.

Don’t forget to check the calendar for scheduled events. We have lots of fun events planned including a trip to Cozumel in June and Little Cayman in late August. We usually have at least one private boat dive per month and if you haven’t done one of those you should consider it. We always have a lot of fun.

If you haven’t been diving in a while it might be a good idea to have your gear checked out. That second stage of yours might have something living in it after being in your garage so long. Now is a good time to have it serviced.

If you haven’t paid your dues for 2023 yet, please do so as soon as possible and submit your signed renewal forms
Looking forward to seeing a lot of you either a meeting or on a dive boat.

Live long and lobster!
