1.       Trips planned

  • Scuba Santa record attempt 18th December – sign up NOW! We need to help break the record and it will be a wicked event!

  • Talks/visits – we have lots of non-diving stuff planned for the beginning of next year when it will be a little too cold and miserable for diving. The DDRC visit is what we are all really looking forward to!

  • Summer Trip 2012 – hard boat is booking and information will be sent out by our DO shortly! Exciting stuff!

3.       Lock Up – The Lock up has been re-organised and it is looking a lot tider! Please help us keep it that way by hanging up all your kit in the right place.

4.       Allowing the AU to use Indy – The AU have asked us whether other clubs might be able to use our RIB so we are currently liaising with G and Bob to make a set of rules to keep her safe!

5.       Christmas meal – 44 people have signed up! It is going to be a fantastic night. Look out for details of a Secret Santa plan we have devised!
