A monthly dip for all club members of all levels at a local dive site, usually Capernwray. Leave your name in the diary, check if anyone else has left their name then go diving. This is an informal arrangement, but it is suggested that people meet at the shop around 09.30. Any kit hired from the shop is subject to the shop rules for hiring kit.
Anglesey Camp and Dive "Camp Freddy 3: With a Vengeance"
Dates  23 to 25 August 2008
Organiser Ronnie Chowns  
ANOTHER WEEKEND DIVING!
 
Another weekend of camping and diving is being organised for the August Bank Holiday weekend at Trearddur Bay on Anglesey. This time the weather will be perfect (not just great) and we should be able to get quite a few dives and beers in over the weekend.

Camping is at Blackthorn Farm near Trearddur Bay and they have plenty of space for tents. The idea is to book your camping site direct with Blackthorn Farm on 01407 765262 as soon as possible and they will take half of the camping fees using credit card over the phone. Because it is the bank holiday, the campsite will want you to book three nights (Fri, Sat, Sun) each of which cost £16 per tent per night (without an electrical hookup). Ronnie will have an electrical hookup if you need to recharge torches etc. The club already has three tents booked into the campsite.

There are no further fees or deposits needed but you should email Ronnie or the club on club@fins.org.uk and get your name in the book in the shop so we can get a feel for the numbers coming.

There will probably be a short meeting nearer the time to organise who brings what and where we might dive around Anglesey but on past form there are plenty of places to get wet around the island.

Bridlington  
Dates 28 to 29 September 2008
Organiser Possibly Dave Stuart  

Got a weekend pencilled in with the boat at Bridlington. It is going to be 28th and 29th September 2008. The boat is for 12 people, cost will be £80 for 2 days diving plus accommodation, which is about £25 per person per night in a B&B, single, twin, double or family rooms. If people want to do it cheaper there are plenty of camp sites nearby too.

To book your place, have your name put in the diary at the shop with the £80 boat charge, which is non-refundable.

Although possibly full it is still worth getting your name on the list at the shop as a standby if you want to go.

Date Future visit 2008?
   

In March 2007 Fins visited a dive centre near York for a Hard Hat and Hyperbaric Chamber - Ever wondered what it was like to dive before SCUBA was invented? This was the chance to dive in hard-hat and standard dress. Hopefully there may be a return visit sometime in the future.
