    Raleigh Area FB group for Divers

    Hey gang,
    I created a FB group for Raleigh Area Divers

    There wasn't one after talking with Joe and Bill.. So I created one
    Facebook is a good platform for this since there are tons of users and it is integrated into most people’s lives these days.

    http://www.facebook.com/groups/33653428 ... /RADivers/

    Goal:
    RADivers: promoting safe, fun, team-oriented diving in the Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill Area.

    Intro Message: Everyone, this group was created to form a social network of divers whom enjoy safe, Team Oriented Diving in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area.
    Goals
    1) Enjoy ourselves diving !!
    2) Buddy up divers and teams for local and regional Dives and events.
    3) Share training tips and get sharp on our skills
    4) Enjoy some group power for Charters and regional dive trips.

    RADivers (Raleigh Area Divers) is a non-organizational aligned group, All training organizations are welcome, PADI, GUE, SSI, NAUI, TDI, Etc.

    Some Ideas we talked about....
    Getting Charters together for weekdays in Hatteras and Morehead.
    training/skills days
    Trips with people you know, that are to the destinations of our choosing.
    Organizing training events with non-local agencies

    give it a join and get the word out.

    Thanks
    rob

    So far, we've been diving weekly at Fantasy Lake which has been a lot of fun. We've had a few Thursday night dives and some Sunday dives. Some of us are headed offshore to the Cassimir and Normannia with Aquatic Safaris at the end of the month (26th). I'm so looking forward to salt water after a winter of cave and quarry diving. Still plenty of space on the boat if anybody's interested.

    While that may work fine in practice, it will never work in theory.

    it is cold. it is especially cold below the thermocline. but it tends to have good viz. we went on new year's & it wasn't as cold as in past years & we had a good time.

    On Thursday night it was 52 degrees, no thermocline, and some visibility
