Payment For Achill Trip

Posted on Monday, May 29th, 2006 by Admin

For those of you travelling to Achill can you all please ensure prompt payment this week.  Sending Leah a cheque is probably the best option as she may not make the pool this Thursday.  Alternatively a committee member might oblige by collecting at the pool.  See Members Area for Leah’s contact details.

Dive Notification

Posted on Friday, May 19th, 2006 by Admin

Due to the bad weather forecast, there will be a dive this Sunday (May 21st) on the Alasdair in Strangford Lough.  This is a shore dive to a small wreck. The depth is around 17m to 20m and the dive can often be dark but there is usually plenty of life on and around it.  You will need to be dived up to 15m and you need to bring a torch.  Contact Ed if you are interested - see Members Area for contact details.

Courses and Tests

Posted on Tuesday, May 16th, 2006 by Admin

Just a quick reminder of things you need to bring to any CFT course/test you go on.

  • Your logbook with the specific course/test section signed by Mike (Dive Officer);
  • Your CFT membership card with photo and signature;
  • A letter from Mike recommending you for the course;
  • Any other pre-requisites as noted on the CFT courses and test booklet.

Pay particular attention to the fact that Mike needs to sign your logbook and write a letter recommending you for the course! If you turn up without this you may be turned away. If you planning to go on a course then you need to talk to Mike beforehand so that he can get you the correct paperwork.
