Back to School News & EventsSeptember 2010
Greetings!  

Dive for A Cure 2009.
This month's newsletter is dedicated to the memory of my sister, Louise Ellen Kohan-Fischer. Louise died after a battle with cancer this July.
 
I am asking each of you to help me and a team of divers from HydroSports by making a donation to the Oregon Health Sciences University Knight Cancer Institute. The HydroSports Dive Team will be participating in the third annual Dive for a Cure event September 25 at Woahink Lake in Florence. Our goal is to raise $2500 to $5000 for breast cancer research and education. Dive for a Cure 2009 raised $30,000.
 
Please bring your tax-deductible donation to HydroSports or mail it to the shop. Checks should be made out to OHSU Knight Cancer Institute. Write Dive for a Cure in the memo line. Every contribution is deeply appreciated, small and not-so-small.
 
If you would like to join the HydroSports Dive for a Cure dive team September 25, please call me.
 
Sincerely,
 
Mark Fischer

Cressi is Coming to Keizer!
OK Jim,did you catch the alliteration?
Cressi is the oldest underwater diving company presently existing: officially, it dates back to 1946, when brothers Egidio and Nanni Cressi founded it, but already 7 years before that, in 1939, they had begun small-scale manual production. 

So, the history of underwater diving itself is identified with the history of Cressi and many, many Cressi products have marked the evolution of this sport over the past sixty years, with a series of inventions and insights that were then followed by all the manufacturers. 
 
Watch for Cressi products to begin appearing at HydroSports in the next few days!
