Deadline - June 30, 2012

Sign-ups must be completed by June 30th to secure a spot on a pontoon boat.  (Maximum capacity of 12 people on the 10‘ x 30’ double-decker boat; no exceptions).  We currently have 2 boats reserved for Saturday and Sunday.  A COMPLETE sign-up includes:  current membership (or guest of current member), registration form received, trip payment received and waiver form received by June 30th.  Un-needed boats will be released on July 1st!!!   

Notes:

This is great trip for divers and non-divers.  We will have our tremendously fun pot-luck dinner on Saturday evening.  Bring a dish that will serve at least 10 people.  Everyone works up quite an appetite being on the water all day.  Bring your own lunch, snacks, water, drinks in a small cooler (or if you only have a larger cooler, plan on sharing it with others as space is limited on the boat with all of the dive gear.).  Also, if you don't want to fool with bringing breakfast items, many of us drive over to the Park Lodge for breakfast before heading to the boat dock.  Sign-up now so you don't miss out! 

It is highly recommended that if you need gear like tanks and weights that you reserve them at New Horizons Diving well before the weekend of the trip
