It is with a sad heart that we will be cancelling the ScubaBoard Spring Megadive...
Dang I was afraid of this news.. But, those that have been going for years have seen the writing on the wall.. Too bad for Ginnie. They will lose a lot of business. Their loss.

As far as diving LBTS, BHB, keys, Venice, etc. is there is that thing called weather. We've talked about it for years, an alternative to Ginnie even with all their rules, but every where else had bigger issues... I'd LOVE to see us dive down here, but geesh, the weather. wind..

At this time with Ginnie Spring's new rules in place, we can't support the event.
:(:(:(:(

In the spirit of diving social, we love to create events that keep everyone diving
and bring the new divers into the community.
So we are planning a Venice Beach Bash to help to fill the void.
Details will be coming soon.

I have sent a link of this discussion to Ginnie. No, they probably don't care, but I still feel we should give them a heads up of how we feel.

Dang! Was hoping nobody knew!:D :D

Seriously though, it's happened so many times, we plan an event then no diving because the weather didn't want to play nice..
Bowling for Scouts? :rofl3:
 
Some of you may not have seen this,
as I am receiving requests for the Spring Megadive Date.

I heard from some folks in the cave diving community that they are also being chased out of Ginnie. Apparently there was a large group of cave divers that have an annual event on one of the holiday weekends each year. They've also been made aware that they were unwelcome just like we were. The impression that group had was that Ginnie preferred tubers/college kids etc.

I only post it because it made me feel a little better to know our group wasn't specifically targeted. Maybe it will make some of you feel better as well.

Hopefully Ginnie will eventually realize that turning away money is not a good business decision and they'll take steps to reclaim divers as customers.

Edit:

Or maybe someone with nearby property can dig another cavern/cave entrance and set up as a dive location.

The cave is on public property. Anyone can take a boat up the river and dive the cave.

Yeah, that's the same situation Hospital Hole is in. Occasionally people dive hospital hole, but it's a pain in the butt so most people do not.
