PUMPKIN CARVING AT EDMONDS SATURDAY

Post by JDR »

UNDERWATER PUMPKIN CARVING CONTEST

26th Annual Fund Raiser for the Edmonds Underwater Park
October 25th, Saturday at 11:15

There will be a briefing and rules review at noon. Standard diving equipment and checking in and out with the Beachmaster is required. PUMPKINS ARE PROVIDED. The depth will be about 25 feet and the time limit is ~45 minutes.
Pumpkins are vented and soaked prior to the dive so they are less buoyant. Bring some extra lead to make sure you can get them to the bottom. Any knife can be used but it must travel safely to and from the beach. You will dive as a buddy team, if your buddy can’t make it, we will find one for you at the beach.
The judges for the contest will be grade school kids. Pumpkins are provided or you can bring your own.
Tickets are $10. You get to keep your carved pumpkin at the end of the contest.
The money raised supports the volunteer effort at the Edmonds Underwater Park as all off shore improvements are supported by donations. Recent donations have implemented new diver trails, buoys and two new features.
Sign in at the beach from 11:15 to Noon. We start the briefing at noon. Parking is limited, arrive early!

Since 1987 Underwater Sports has contributed generous prizes to this event.

Please come out and support the park's all volunteer effort!

Wish I was going to be there, but I'll be at the club dive! Even though my experience there last year wasn't so great, I've learned a lot since then, and the contest would be much different this year, I'm sure!

Make sure to bring extra weight, and watch the current!
