OK, since the dates and location for the January Wrinkles Dive are now set, I've started this new thread for planning purposes.
I'll keep updating this first post as a synopsis of the info in this thread and will include links to the other Wrinkles threads for easy reference. I'll also provide links from here for threads about future Wrinkles Dives.
When: Saturday, January 29th
Where: La Jolla Shores, San Diego County
What is the Wrinkles Dive?
This is a monthly gathering of all divers and non-divers in SoCal who can make it. It's a lot of fun involving diving, eating, socializing and last month even camping!
It all started when our SoCal member, Wrinkles, mentioned to a group that she dove with that it would be really fun to be able to get together at least once a month. Pasley, took off with the idea and announced the first "Wrinkles Dive". The rest is history!
It's open to everyone of all skill levels from "I'm not certified yet" to "Do we really have to dive the Andrea Doria again?"
We've found this to be a great way to meet our fellow divers locally and many new dive buddies have been found though these "dive soirees".

January Wrinkle's Dive
Should we have a fixed rotation of locations for Wrinkles Dives
Here is a tentative "fixed monthly schedule" of locations that is being discussed in the above thread. (Your ongoing input will be appreciated and reflected here):
January - San Diego County
February - Orange County
March - Catalina Island
April - Los Angeles/Ventura County (between Palos Verdes and Leo Carrillo)
May - Santa Barbara County
May - Decide whether to go to San Luis Obispo (SLO), start again in San Diego, or insert a boat dive.
I'll update this post as we have more info.
