Michael — Wed, 15 Feb 2012 19:06:58 +0000

The club have booked the NAC (National Aquatic Centre) for Sunday the 11^th of March from 7pm to 8pm.

As you know from previous years this is a great opportunity for members to;

1. Practice their skills (Rescue lifts, SMB, etc).

2. Test out new and serviced equipment (SMB, Regs, etc).

3. Have a bit of crac in more tepid waters (Though the 5 meter pool can be cool enough at times).

This normally costs approximately €15 per diver.

Training Officer Noel is looking for a list of divers interested in going, if you commit to going but cannot go on the day you will still be expected to pay unless you can find a replacement.

In the past this has been a fun day out and of benefit to divers of all grades.

The places are limited to 20 people approximately, so names forward to Noel ASAP.
