The 2008
dive season is getting closer and closer. (YEA!) Training Director Larry Dickinson recently had a
meeting with his training staff and it looks as though things are
coming together for the upcoming dive season. As many of you know, Gerry Padgett is home
recovering from surgery and will miss this year's training classes. Of
course, we all wish him a speedy recovery and hope that he returns to
the club and to diving as soon as possible.
As I
mentioned previously, the Club's tanks that required a hydrostatic test
this year have now had all those tests completed and, thanks in large
part to Paul Carter, almost
all of those tanks have also had the VIP tests completed. Several club
members have brought their personal tanks in to have a hydrostatic test
completed and those will be taken to the testing company within a few
days. If you need to have your tank tested and have not gotten it to
the equipment room, please have the tanks delivered by Friday April 11th.
If you need a VIP inspection, please bring your tanks in as soon as
possible.
The
Board approved the purchase of a Club banner at our April meeting and
it should be available prior to the start of our lake dives. I think it
will be great advertising for the Club. We are also considering the
purchase of a smaller banner; this will be discussed at the April Club
meeting before a final decision is made by the Board.
I am
looking forward to seeing you at our April 8th club
meeting. Our May Board meeting
will be held Thursday May 1st (note the early date as the
first Thursday is May 1st) - members are always welcome at
that meeting as well. If you need to reach me for any reason, my email
address is LRH666@aol.com and my cell phone
number is 972-989-9809.
