Happy New Year Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

We will all be happy to say good-bye to 2020!

While we were able to meet in January, February and March, the rest of the year has looked very different. ZOOM has become the modern day means of communication for the majority of the World.

Wishing all the Under Sea Adventurers a happy and healthy 2021. Hope to sea you soon. Until we meet again, stay SAFE.

I encourage you to visit our home page www.usadiveclub.org.  Please click on the calendar and keep up to date on all the diving and non-diving scheduled activities. You may also take a look at the photo gallery and take a peek at past events.

I wish you all Happy Diving.

Warm Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

I would like to take this time to wish you all a very Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Season's Greetings and most importantly a Happy and Healthy New Year.  

2020 has been a very challenging year.  We all learned new skills, such as mask wearing, social distancing, disinfecting everything, ZOOMING, and the importance of having a supply of toilet paper.  Not being able to hug loved ones has been the hardest for most of us.

Please remember to stay safe during the upcoming Holidays.  It is hardest now when we all want to gather and celebrate.  Staying safe this year will allow you to be here NEXT year.

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

Well, here we go again.  As more businesses reopen, there is an increased risk to your health.  Please remain safe. Common sense is a special quality to have and practice.

We are in the middle of a Presidential election.  Please VOTE!

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

I hope you are enjoying the Zoom meetings as much as I am!  During this hard time, Zoom is a great way to stay in touch with our loved ones and friends.

We had 2 guests attend the August general meeting of the Under Sea Adventurers Dive Club on Zoom. Wendy Humphrey returned for her second visit and Fran Hare was a first-time guest.

Greetings To All My Friends From The Hospitality Hut,

Another month has passed, and we are still in the midst of this terrible virus.

I sincerely hope you are all well and staying safe. If we behave ourselves, we will come through this and get back to life as we knew it.

Some of you are diving and enjoying our wonderful sport. Please stay safe!

Hello From The Hospitality Hut!

We have all been through some very hard months.  It has been a challenge but if we all keep paying attention and respect each other's space, we may soon be able to resume some form of "normal" life.

Some of us continue to visit through ZOOM meetings, some on Face Time or other social media venues.  It is very important to keep in contact with friends and family at times like this, especially those who are alone.   

Roger did invite the Club to a general meeting last moth.  It was nice to see those who could make the time to attend.  Hopefully more of you will be available for future meetings.

Greetings From Cabin Fever Central....aka The Hospitality Hut,

First, I hope you are all well and staying safe.  

We have all entered a whole new way of life.  Masks, gloves and disinfecting products are now on our shopping lists, and forget about toilet paper!! WOW.

It is very important to find some form of staying social while social distanting. Some of us are using ZOOM for Happy Hour.  Others depend on text messaging and family Face Time.  It is hard to be alone during this time and I know many of us are. Please reach out and keep in touch with your family, friends and neighbors.

I would like to give a HUGE "THANK YOU" to all of our Nurses, Fire Fighters, EMT crews, Police and all other public servants that have been on the front line of this deadly pandemic.

On a lighter note,  I have been placing wine bottles in each room of my home so later on in the evening I can go "bar hopping".  

Hopefully, things will be better soon and we will be able to resume some form of normal life.

Warmest regards,

Clare Anthon

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

As I will be in FIJI when the Newsletter is published, I am submitting my article early.

At the March general meeting of the Under Sea Adventurers Dive Club, I am pleased to report three first-time guests and two returning guests were in attendence.

Mark Ficarra, son of members John and Kathy attended. Mark is not a diver, however he enjoys snorkeling with his Mom.  They are often spotted at the Hillsboro Inlet.

It was a treat to see member Carol Schurtz accompanied by friend and diver John Beals.  John was certified in 1991 in Ft. Lauderdale and he now lives in North Carolina.

Jessica Moses attended to promote a photography nature event.  These images can be taken underwater or in your back yard. Nature is all around us! Details to follow.

It is a treat to see old friends too.  Pat Schwab joined the group for a great presentation!

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

I am very pleased to report one first-time guest attended the February general meeting.

Shawn Chriswell found us on the Internet.  As Shawn is a newly certified diver in 2020, he is entitled to one FREE year of membership.  Shawn was certified in Deerfield Beach as an Open Water diver and he completed the Nitrox course as well.  Be sure to welcome him at upcoming meetings.
