Upcoming dives

Talk to the dive chairs early. Please sign up in advance. All people who sign up are responsible for fees at the dive. People who don't sign up for the dive may be excluded from the dive and shunned for life. On camping trips, each diver is responsible for finding its own campsites. The chair will attempt to organize campsites, but no guarantees can be made. There is a $5 per day fee for use of the club boats.

Catalina dates confirmed

The confirmed date for the annual Emerald Bay Catalina trip is September 9-16, which starts the Saturday after Labor Day. There will be about 60-70 children between the 11th and the 15th. Susan Carter and Rocky Rockafellow are chairing the dive.

Sign-ups will begin at the March meeting, and a deposit of $150 will be required to sign up. Total trip cost for the week, including diving off of the club inflatables, accommodations, all meals and transportation to and from Los Angeles to Catalina island is estimated to be $500. Non-members can sign up, but will be charged an additional fee that is the equivalent of an individual membership. Also, members have priority in event the trip fills up, so all divers interested in coming with us to Catalina are encouraged to join the club!
