NACD - The National Association for Cave Diving plans to attend the Fallfest Megadive on Saturday. If you are curious about what we do, stop by and talk with us between dives and meals. We can discuss our overhead training programs, conservation efforts, our recent seminar, and more. Visit us at
www.nacdmembers.com and on facebook.
And another 20 or so that signed up on Facebook, but haven't checked in here.

For those who always ask what to bring. Here are some ideas...

Meat items for the grill
(let's keep it to Hamburgers, hotdogs, brats, and chicken breast and buns) (We're trying to keep it simple so it doesn't take forever to cook for the group) (If you have something else you were thinking about and want to cook that yourself, that's great! Some have brought friers or smokers and added to the meat items that way.)
Eggs (We never seem to have enough.)
Items for the omlettes
(additional meats, peppers, mushrooms, onions, salsa, wraps, cheese, etc.)
Items for Breakfast
(Juices, fruit, muffins, coffee, creamer, etc.)
Charcoal (self starting)
Condiments (cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, ketchup, mustard, mayo, relish, BBQ sauce etc.)
Bottled water
Side dishes (casseroles, baked beans, potato salad, macaroni salad, cole slaw, chips and dips/salsa, fruit salad, green salads w/dressing, veggie tray w/dip, etc.)
Deserts (Oh please don’t forget the deserts!)
Tiki torches and fuel (for around the fire)
Fire wood for the camp fire.

We also need volunteers to help out during for the weekend. THANKS!!!!
If we all pitch in and take a task, it makes for a fun weekend for everyone.

A little taste of Megadive from 2011


All are welcome!
Hope to see you there!




 
will be sorting out camping & dive gear tomorrow. Driving over on friday. A lot of time, effort & expense to get 1 day of diving in, but really it's more about meeting people than the dives for me.
 
Yep. And the campfire. And the rum. And the megaOmlettes, and the friends, and the____________ well, you get the picture.. Looking forward to seeing everybody again and meeting new friends. woot!
 
Everyone think hard and put out your most positive weather vibes ....

Don't let this scare you off, but be prepared (if necessary)

:no: More washing your mouth out with rum for you man!

I think we'll wait to see what Jeano has to report as it gets closer. You know how those weather forecaster are...



Later,
Moonie
 
Little dude, I wouldn't be bringing up issues relating to size if I were you. :ijs:
 
You 2 boys :shakehead: :rofl3:

I did love the "snow gator", any relative if yours?

I wouldn't worry about the weather until we get closer. They're usually wrong, but we'll have a better chance for accuracy then.
 
Yeah, well ..... he started it!



:D


I'm not worried about the weather. We'll be there even if we have to retreat to the car.
