Ray and Ted's Most Excellent Adventures continue

Wanted to let you know that Ray will be leading a just-scheduled ASC dive trip to the Keys October 8-12! I suspect there might be an emphasis on wrecks – ya think?

I’ll be taking a Master Diver class to Dutch Springs the weekend of September 26-27, camping on-site at least Saturday night. All are welcome to join us. If you’ve never been to Dutch Springs, it’s an opportunity (excuse?) to come. We will be doing a night dive Saturday night.

Also, I will be at Lake Rawlings the weekend of October 24-25. It is the DUI Demo weekend – a great opportunity to try a dry suit, or the latest in undergarments if you already have a dry suit. I’ll be camping there Friday and Saturday night – any and all welcome to come for one last dive weekend or day before the end of the local dive season.

Call the shop if you want to get on Ray’s trip or to get a ticket for the DUI Demo. If you just want to dive at either Dutch Springs or Lake Rawlings, c’mon on down! Let me know if you’re coming so we can look for you.

Safe Diving

ASC helps the U.S Naval Academy

The Magothy River Association has been partnering with NOAA and USNA for almost 10 years to provide dive training which prepares divers for dark water diving. This training also reviews scientific diving protocols which will be utilized when the trained midshipman divers meet with the MRA in April to dive in the Magothy River to collect data for ongoing scientific studies. read more at https://www.usna.com/SSLPage.aspx?pid=7485

Congratulations to our Advanced Open Water Divers

Congratulations to Scot Kight, Matt Locke, Anne McGovern and Andrew Smith for completing their Advanced Open Water Diver Certifications last weekend at Millbrook Quarry!! Scot also completed his Dy Suit Certification and is now really looking forward to dropping below the thermocline!

Demo Day at Millbrook - Sept 27

Demo Day is one of our most popular events. Imagine you could take an entire department store worth of dive gear, move it to Millbrook for the day, and have manufacturer's representatives behind each counter.

Even better, you & your buddy can borrow equipment and give it a try in Millbrook, just a few feet away. This is a great way to "try before you buy". Each year this event draws divers from around the region. Many come for the chance to borrow test the latest gear, or for the opportunity to ask questions directly to the manufacturers. It's a great way to see what's new in the world of diving. There is no special fee for this event. Your Millbrook admission entitles you to lunch from the grill and use of demo equipment.

Notes:
Participants need to bring a complete set of Open Water equipment if they wish to dive.
Need rental equipment? We can help. If you've not yet rented equipment from ASC, stop by earlier in the week so that we can size you correctly.
