GLWC Fall M&G October 14-16

[BoneCrusher]

Way to go, Randy

Its ok. No one really listens to Randy anyway. Its just like Randy saying he is going diving. No one believes that happens either!

I thought I heard that this thing was canceled. Shame Ted couldn't make it.

Ted is going to make it unless some one get a Florida trip together real quick

Has anybody that knows Mike personally talked to him to make sure we're still on for this? and that gas fills will be available?

 

[CamG]

It is all good Tim, we are on and as far as I know air fills are available.
They were on Labor Day and if you are looking for cave fills then the answer is NO!
You will have to settle for rated pressure that is all! Unless you have access to your own compressor!

The vis will be good by the M&G calmed back down once the training lets up a bit!
It is going to be fun look out!

Tim Stahl was teaching some classes there this past weekend and he said the fills are available again.. He said they were only down for a few because Mike was changing filters on the air compressor.

I've never been to Gilboa when fills were not available. I know that a couple of years ago there was an issue with the compressor during a fall M&G (one I was not able to attend), but I've never seen that happen before or since on any of my dozens of trips to Gilboa. Mike keeps his fill station running smoothly. After all, it's a HUGE money maker for him.

As far as checking with Mike to see if this event it still on ... this isn't Mike's event. This is OUR event and we're simply holding it at Gilboa. They know we're coming. We're on the calendar (you can see it on their website) and we have the turn-around reserved.

The vis was pretty good on Sat Labor day weekend and Mike was selling gas.

 

[gtxl1200]

where are we going to be? I just got a new 3 mill shorty I'm hoping to use it. I've only dove 1 time since my open water check out dives. Will someone dive with me? I have an aluminum 80 and a warm water tropical regulator can I dive on the deep side with you guys? Is there camping over night there? or do people just come back the next day? I would prefer to camp. how are the camp sites there? Full hook ups? Do I need to call Gilboa and make a reservation? I think that might cover it. Who is in charge of this event? Who do I contact in case I might have more questions?

I think we should place a 'Hello Kitty' item in the quarry in memory of Tim Owens aka Netmage.
