This has been booked for Saturday 15th August 2009. Full details including ticket prices will be announced later on.

In the meantime please put the date in your diary. We really would like to see every single member of the branch there on the night.

We intend to invite as many ex-members as we can, so if you have the address or contact details of any ex-members please pass them on to Karen.

The branch holiday is to Malta, sometime next September. It’s a great destination for families as well as offering fantastic diving. For this too, we would like to get as many members there as possible.

Don’t forget you can save in the club account.

For more information, contact Andy.

We don’t have an expeditions’ officer this year but the advanced diver students are all going to plan trips of one sort of another, so there will be some organised branch trips.

You can help!!

Why not organise a trip yourselves? If you fancy going to St. Abbs or Plymouth (or anywhere else), consider planning a trip with other members in mind too.

Don’t forget we have a club boat and several willing (?) boat handlers and coxes. Why not book a hard boat and take a group of 10 or 12?

If you are planning a trip please let Andy know so that he can coordinate dates.

From BSAC (might be worth considering...)

"DIVE magazine is pleased to announce the launch of a series of events beginning in 2009 with the DIVE Fest - Party on the Beach, which takes place 15th to the 17th May 2009 at Pentewan Sands in Cornwall, with the support of BSAC. At this
festival of diving, visitors will be able to go diving either with their own clubs and branches or through an on-site provider, they will also be able to view and try out new kit, attend seminars and hear speakers, but most of all get together with other divers for a weekend of partying and diving. The weekend's highlight will be a beachside party with a band, bonfire and hog roast. DIVE and BSAC will be releasing ticketing information within the next few weeks, but please support what is going to be a fantastic diving event and put these dates in your diaries now."
