I'll update this first post as a running synopsis of this thread.
When: Saturday, July 8th
Where: Avalon Underwater Dive Park at Casino Point, Catalina Island
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 sometimes 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".
RSVP:
I've started a ScubaBoard Calendar event for you to RSVP here:
The Calendar feature will not be active while we optimize the new ScubaBoard servers. It may not be available until after this Wrinkles event.
(you can now rsvp and include your guest count!)
Please sign up on the Calendar. This will help us get an idea of how many people will be there so that we can set aside a space by the Casino that is big enough for all of us to hang out together.
Please update your party size on the calendar with changes.
Attendance:
Let me know if I've misrepresented anyone's attendance here.
