*********** Meetings are BACK ON ******************

Wednesday October 7 at J Gilligan's Bar and Grill in Arlington - Proprietor Randy Ford, has reserved us a larger room, his pub house for the meeting. Last month we decided at the last minute to meet in the regular room as early arivers made us think it would be a small meeting, but we had over 22 people in attaendance. We will have more space and good TV for a presentation.

Topic: We are going to be talking about diving you can't do around here. Ice diving!  Richard Thomas or Internationa SCUBA in Carrolton is going to talk about the annual Ice Hole dive held in South Dakota. I'm going to bring some pictures from last year and John Richerson is going to talk about his extreme version of ice diving from a few years ago. You may not think this diving is for you, but I find the methods and consideration for cold water diving facinating. Hope to see you there! 

Next Dive Outing

Blue Lagoon Pumpkin Outing

Date: October 17 - 18

Let’s go carve pumpkins underwater at the Blue Lagoon in Huntsville. Camping is available and several hotels are nearby. Diving Rebels will provide sandwiches for lunch on Saturday and fruit/muffins for Sunday breakfast. We can find a restaurant in town for dinner or someone could volunteer to coordinate dinner at the site.

A few rules: Bring your own pumpkin or gourd and carving implements. One entry per dive team. Pumpkins may be embellished with other organic materials only. Prizes will be awarded for creativity, 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd. 

Also, now is a good time to think about outings for 2021, where to go or if you can, volunteer to help in hosting an outing.

 Restaurant of the Month: 

Still not doing these (Maybe a group cookout in the future)
