Club dive! Club dive! Club dive! MOVED! May 10th, 2014!

Post by Penopolypants »

What: Club Dive!
Where: Redondo!
When: Now on Saturday May 10th, 9:00 a.m.!

I will bring barbecue basics (grill, tables, cooler, popup canopy, utensils, plates, water, etc.). I will be bringing burger patties too.

Please bring a dish to share, such as potato salad, casseroles, desserts, or a packet of hot dogs, hot dog buns, burger buns, etc. Please post here what you are bringing so that we only have 20 bags of chips! :)

The weather can be pretty variable this time of year. A popup canopy might be nice if it rains, if you have one to bring. Also bring: sunscreen, water, a chair for surface intervals, your dive gear, and your meet and greet face!

Looking for new buddies? Be there! Always wanted to put some avatars to some faces? Now is the time! Want to try out some gear, like a different type of fins, or a bp/w, or a different tank? Let me know, and I'll wrangle up some gear for you!

This is a "Big Buddy" dive, so if you are a "Little Buddy" (a new and/or inexperienced diver) and want to dive with a "Big Buddy" (a more experienced diver), let me know and I'll set you up. If you're willing to be a Big Buddy let me know that too!

A map to the dive site can be found here:

We'll meet at the parking lot across from the pier, NOT the one across from Salty's:

I will hopefully have a new vehicle by then, so I will update this later to let y'all know what to look for.

Woohoo, diving!

Oh good ... I can make that one. I have a speaking engagement on the previous date.

I'll bring a batch of brownies, my grill, canopy, and possibly Cheng (she might still be in France).

Wife and I will be there. I think we'll bring a chocolate cake with raspberry reduction.

Any chance someone would be willing to lend me a 119 or 130 tank to try out? I've been renting 100s and want to try other options before buying one this summer.

Nice! On my calendar, and I'll try to gather an Oregon Scuba Club contingent to join in. :) I'm pimping the group out on our Facebook page.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/oregonscubaclub/

EDIT: Turns out I'm house/dog sitting for a friend for two weeks that spans this time. Means it's a no-go for me. Bummer. :-(

I'll be out since this is the date that the international high school ROV competition is being held and they need volunteer divers. :)

OMG . . . I've HAD Archis' roasted goat. It would be worth driving from Oregon for!

Unfortunately, I am almost certainly going to be working that weekend, although I don't have my May schedule yet.

Pretty sure Coll and I can make this date as there is nothing on our calendar! I will bring baked beans and a crock pot to keep them hot (if we will have power) and homemade Chex Mix.

It's coming up soon! Please let me know:

a) if you can make it (so I can plan for enough burgers, etc)
b) if you need a buddy
c) if you need gear
d) what dish you are bringing, so we don't end up with 30 bags of chips!

I plan to be there. It's just for the day? I will bring burger buns. PM me and let me know what else you need. I will definitely need a buddy. :)

Cheng and I are planning to be there ... I'll make a big batch of brownies, and bring my popup canopy and an extra BBQ grill.

One thing we might want to consider if there's going to be a big turnout is moving it over to the park this year ... there was a mob down there this morning for opening day of boating/ling cod/shrimping season ... and if the weather's nice I don't expect it'll be any less crowded next week-end. So I wouldn't count on getting any of the parking spaces up where the boat trailers get parked (those spots are, after all, reserved for the boaters).

Just a thought ... I can always get down there early and stake out the "deep" parking spots, as I usually do ...

I intend on showing quite early too and will most likely vacate a little early and open a spot. Not sure what the weather is supposed to be like on that day.

Sometime mid-afternoon, usually around 3-ish, but it depends on the weather, viz, etc. People come and go all day though. Some people show up and say hi, some do three dives. Whatever works!
