Greetings From The Hospitality Hut!

WOW, it's hard to believe the Holidays are upon us. I guess it's true, "Time flies when you are having fun."

At the October general meeting of the Under Sea Adventurers Dive Club, I was pleased to introduce 2 first time guests.

Dan Baeza, guest of member Daryl J, attended his first meeting.  Dan is an Instructor and has logged over 3500 dives! He has been diving since 1977. 

Member Judy T was accompanied by guest Diane Courchesne. Diane has been diving since 1979. After many years out of the water, Diane is ready to get back to diving.

Please be sure to say hello and welcome our guests when you see them at a meeting.

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut!

Unfortunately, the September general meeting was cancelled due to Hurricane Dorian.  Thankfully we were saved! Our neighbors in the Bahamas were not. 

Hope to see you all at the October 3rd general meeting.

In the meantime, I hope you are all safe and well.

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut,

It's always to treat to see a familiar face!  At the August general meeting of the Under Sea Adventurers Dive Club, that is exactly what happened.

"Lindy" Bob Lindemuth attended the meeting.  Hopefully he has his membership details in order and will continue to join us.

I had the pleasure of introducing the youngest guest to date.  Gabby Crisanto, daughter of member Sarah, attended her first meeting.  What a cutie!

Finally the deep blue sea is warming up and inviting us to jump in and enjoy!

It does not happen often, but I do not have any first-time guests to report.

Somehow, I missed Rory Brohammer, son of Dr. Rick.  He was spotted in the front after the meeting started.

If any member sees a guest without the "Guest" name tag, please bring this to my attention.
