So, I thought it was time to throw another party. Why not throw a BBQ/sales event. We will call it, Customer Appreciation Day. Thank you, for the support that you have given us over the last couple of years. We always have so much fun at our events, so let's have some fun! Join us for some Huge savings.

Group Gone Diving · August 17th, Rosario Beach. Meeting at Gone Diving 8:30am, be on the road at 9am.
Group Gone Lake Cleanup · September 28th, Bloedel-Donovan Park Meeting at Gone Diving 8:30am. Free air and rentals provided for helping us cleanup the lake. There is a lot of tiny stuff and some bigger items that need removing. Great for non-diver and divers to help at this event.
FYI on Group Gone Diving:
This does not cost you anything to come diving with us if you own your
own gear and a shore dive. If you need rental equipment we can outfit
you. If it is a charter than you pay for the charter. We just want to
go diving and invite you along to join us. You don't need a buddy, we
can provide one for you. Just so you know, our Group outings are very
social. We enjoy helping each other to provide a safe and comfortable
environment. If you do not like to dive with a buddy than I don't
suggest you join us.

Upcoming Classes
Dry Suit Speciality; Thursday, September 11th, 6:30pm-9pm: Diving in the Pacific Northwest, makes diving dry a real comfort to stay warm during your surface intervals and extending your bottom time. Learn to dive in a dry suit so you will be ready for the winter, when it comes. Join us for one night in the pool and than
one open water dive. If you have been diving in a dry suit and would
like your Dry Suit specialty you may challenge the class at a reduced rate.
Divemaster Class; Tuesday, October 8th: 6:30pm
The PADI Divemaster course involves higher level learning that begins at the Rescue Diver course and expands in the Divemaster course. The Divemaster course expands the problem solving skills developed by the Rescue Diver program, and extends it from accident management and prevention scenarios to supervisory situations with student divers and certified divers. At the divemaster level, problem solving emphasizes looking for many possible solutions under the circumstances and choosing the best of several. Divemaster problem solving may include more than safety-related issues, and include handling customer service, business and operational challenges. The course also addresses attitudes and judgment. Attitudes are emotional influences that shape individual choices ranging from professional behavior, role modeling, personal health and following safe diving practices, to very basic values, such as honesty. Judgment applies attitudes, experience, theoretical knowledge, deduction and intuition to problem solving and making decisions based on variables, sometimes under circumstances that aren't "black or white." This is the first step into the PADI professional realm of dive training.
Enriched Air; Thursday, September 14th: 6:30pm-9:30pm
Learn how to use Enriched Air up to 40% for recreation diving. Using
Nitrox reduces the nitrogen you take in at depth letting you extend
your no decompression bottom times and dive more conservatively helping you avoid DCS.
You will learn how to analyze and plan your dives using nitrox. This
class is one night of classroom. No dives required.
Advance Class; Saturday/Sunday, October 18th/19th: This
is your next step out of your Open Water class if you are ready to
