The newest GUE Affiliate!

Post by LCF »

I'm proud to help announce that, thanks to some hard work on the parts of Koos du Preez, Laurynn Evans, Margaret Christopher, DAve Mercer and a little bit from me, GUE Seattle is an official GUE Affiliate organization. What does this mean? It means headquarters support for things like starting up a local chapter of Project Baseline, and other ideas for exploration, education and conservation.

We'll be marking our beginning with a special event. GUE Cave instructor Mark Messersmith will be giving a presentation on the work of the WKPP at the Aurora Avenue Underwater Sports, at 7 pm on December 15th. If this is like the talk I heard him give in April of last year, it's got some GREAT photo and video associated with it, and is pretty fascinating. Hope to see a lot of folks there!

I tried ordering some Koolaid at Starbucks on the way to work. Apparently they haven't gotten the memo yet.


Congrats on the Affiliation!

I should add that Doug Marcoux has also been an integral part of the planning and rollout of GUE Seattle... can't have a plan without a marketing genius to pitch in ideas. :)

There are many exciting projects, classes, and just plain old fun diving opportunities coming up. Stay tuned!

Congratulations this is going to be great, I can't wait to Join.

And Matt You are obviously not going to the right starbucks. they do sell the Koolaid You just have to ask for a double cup for redundancy and they will know exactly what you mean. and make sure you keep you wallet in the same pocket as everyone else in line with you!!

Diving. . . is an active physical form of meditation. It is so silent- You're like a thought.

SOME PEOPLE ARE LIKE SLINKIES. NOT REALLY GOOD FOR
ANYTHING, BUT THEY BRING A SMILE TO YOUR FACE WHEN PUSHED DOWN THE
STAIRS.
