I'm in Central Oregon and have always wanted to learn to dive.
In the last couple of years being here, I've noticed that we don't seem to have a local team and was wondering what I can do to get started. It appears that whenever someone is needed for a recovery or search operation outside people have to brought in, so there's some level of need, but not the apparent budget.
Any suggestions on what I can do to become a viable resource? In terms of training, experience, etc? Are there other teams that take volunteers, or provide training, etc?
Any help or ideas is greatly appreciated.
