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!

Greetings From The Hospitality Hut!

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.
