How might one get on a notification list for these things? I, and perhaps my husband, would like to participate.

I dive Lake Pleasant quite a lot and would have gone to this event....had I heard about it. Maybe if anyone involved reads the boards here they can let us know where they post the info on this and events like it.

I could be wrong but I think Tres Aquas had something to do with the LP clean-up this year. I know Inland in Goodyear has in the past. Check with some area diveshops.

There's always a clean-up event mid-September - It's nationwide. Project AWARE Foundation

Thanks Steve.....I did just join the board, it would have been after the clean-up. I will keep my eyes and ears open for next years!

Gdaaym8z,

Inland Water Divers will be participating in the 40th anniversary of Earth Day in 2010. Although we have not yet worked the details out, we will be hosting an event on April 17th/18th. I am sure that one of the events will include an underwater clean-up. Feel free to keep an eye on our website for further details as they become available.
