Pirates and the sea go together like, well, divers and the ocean! So even though we are landlocked in Memphis, that won't stop us from celebrating Pyrate Fest - Memphis 2010!! Join us on September 18th and 19th in downtown Memphis for boatloads of fun.

Easy Divers is pleased to be among the first scuba training facilities to issue the Scuba Diving Merit Badge.  It was with great pleasure that I attended Troop #316's Court of Honor to participate in the ceremony and give out the badges.  Not only did the boys prepare themselves to attend next year's Sea Base Camp in Florida, but they earned one college level elective credit, and have begun a hobby that will set them up for adventure for many years to come.

Cooler weather, time to get one more dive in and then make plans for 2011!
It has been a great summer for us at Easy Divers, we are delighted to see so many of our former divers getting back into the sport and equally excited about all the new energy that has arrived in the form of the new divers and friends.  I would like to offer a big heart felt thank you for all of the referrals for training and travel that many of you have sent our way.  Please keep up the good work!

Our staff is preparing to visit Las Vegas in November to attend DEMA, the largest diving convention in the world.  We will be on a mission to find out what is up and coming in equipment, education, and travel for next year.  We will be happy to share what we have learned upon our return.  Stay tuned!

If you would like to sneak one more dive trip in before the weather turns cold, we are giving you two choices on the weekend of Oct 22.  I will be taking a group to Mermet Springs where we will offer: Advanced Open Water, Nitrox Specialty, Drysuit Specialty, and Open Water training.  If you are already certified and want to get some salt water in your face, then Randy Clark will be running a trip down to Panama City Beach for Gulf & Springs diving.  Please visit our website for more travel details.
