Club News

First of all, we hope everyone is getting back to something that resembles normal after hurricane Ian disrupted our lives – some more than others.  We canceled October Dive Club activities to give people time to recover.  I know there was some confusion due to some automatic reminders sent out, but Rich had no internet and couldn’t intercept those.  Here is the remainder of the year Dive Club activities.

There will be no Photo Committee Planning meeting before the November planning meetings.  Sandy and Carmela have agreed to co-chair the committee again this year, unless, of course, someone would like to volunteer.  If you would like to be on the Committee this year, please text me or call Sandy so we know to invite you when we eventually have a meeting.  We have figured out the dates to put on the calendar and will meet at a later date.

The first two meetings in November, the 1^st and 8^th, will be planning meetings at Scotty’s Bierwerks.  November 1 is Dive Planning, November 8 is Event Planning, normal time of 6:30 social, 7:00 meeting.  At both of these meetings, we will have another round of Cornhole.  If you can’t make it to throw, appoint a substitute to throw for you.  Otherwise, you will be disqualified.  Due to popular demand, the distance to throw will be reduced from 28 feet to 20 feet for the rest of the competition.

We will be combining the Banquet and Xmas Party to occur on December 6, starting at 6:00.  This will be a free event open to Members and their invited guests. Anyone who already paid for the Banquet will get a refund. Come to one of the first two meetings in November to receive your refund.  If you don’t pick it up by then, Carmela will mail you a check. The Club will provide Turkey & ham prepared ahead of time, along with rolls, cranberry sauce, stuffing and condiments to make sandwiches. Members are asked to bring appetizers, holiday hors d’oeuvres, or desserts.  Please sign up on-line so we know how many to cook for.  At this event, we will have a condensed photo contest results & prize presentation, the finals of the cornhole contest, President awards, New member initiation and holiday fun to be determined.

Those who paid for the canceled Shark’s Tooth Dives will also be getting a refund in the first two meetings of November.  

Just a reminder that dues are due.  

The Boat Show that was supposed to occur in November has been moved out to January.  We will be participating, but details at a later date.
