Well, I guess it would be wise to let the uninitiated in on just what a MegaDive is.
Ginnie Springs is commercial campground/dive park located on the banks of the Santa Fe River, up above Gainseville. Twice a year, a whole bunch of ScubaBoard'rs meet there for a 3 day weekend. Friday is showup day, with usually a few people diving. Friday night is a campfire. Saturday morning is community breakfast with omelets cooked in Ziploc bags. Saturday is the big dive day, with cave dives for those properly trained, cavern dives, OW dives, possibly river drift dives, tube floats down the river, swimming, snorkeling, animal watching, Saturday afternoon is a community dinner, with a large variety of food available. Just after dark there is a Galaxy Dive in the Ballroom cavern, something that has to be experienced to be understood. Then the big bonfire night, with merrymaking until ? Sunday morning is MegaOmelets in a bag again, followed by packing up and departing.
If you like diving, meeting many great people, eating, relaxing, swimming, late night fires, then you will absolutely LOVE this event.
