Notes:

Notes:

Rate reductions (comps) are available if we secure more than 5 rooms or more than 10 divers.  Cost savings will be disbursed after the trip by BGDC Treasurer.
A Treasure Hunt is planned for either Saturday or Sunday.  This will not be a “huge prize” hunt (e.g. the types sponsored by some Dive Shops), but will do our best to secure fun items that everyone can enjoy/use. 
Scooters can be used and/or rented; UPV certification is REQUIRED.
Temperature:  2 thermoclines in summer.  One around 27 ft and another around 54 feet.  Below second thermocline temperatures are in low 50’s to high 40’s. 
Non-diver activities:  For a small fee ($5.00 - $10.00) non-divers can float/swim in the quarry.  If you don’t get in the water, you are welcome to watch bubbles all day long at no cost.  There are also lots of summer activities in Hopkinsville; check out the Tourism/Chamber of Commerce websites.
