Weekly News Letter - 12th June 2009

New Sports Divers!

Congrats to Will and Clyde on passing their Sports Diver last weekend.

Farnes Trip

Well done to Rob for organising a fantastic trip out to the Farnes -- friendly seals, a great wreck, good weather, good beer and good company. The weekend could not have been better.

New Oceans and Sports diver courses

New Ocean and Sports diver courses are about to start so contact Jo if you want to sign up for them. In particular if you've very nearly finished your Ocean Diver course you might want to start attending Sport Diver lectures anyway. (And if you haven't yet passed the Sport Diver exam then you might want to re attend to refresh your memory).

Email Jo so that she can get an idea of numbers.

Open Water Training Weekend

The next open water training weekend is planned for 15/16 august. Please email Jo if you are interested.

Twitter!

Okay - I know many of you are groaning right now - but if you ARE a twitter fan - you'll be pleased to know that the website is now pulling in all tweets with the keyword #hsacdive onto the front page. Take a look - there is a pretty active discussion about a wreck in the Farnes.

Next years dives in France

Anne is planning a Normandy trip next year. The options are either a two day trip with a night in France or a six day trip joining the boat in France which sounds fab! see below

Joining the boat in France: Courceulles, Port en Bessin, St Vaast la Hogue, or Cherbourgh:
6 Day Diving Holidays, Diving the D Day wrecks of France in the Baie De Seine. All trips are based on 10 divers for space & comfort - £395 per person (plus accommodation & food)

Anne needs to know if there is enough interest to book this as a long diving trip - think of the gastronomic experience as well as the historic diving. Most wrecks are about 30 m so for sports and above. Last month the diver mag had a feature on these wrecks. Please email Anne.
