Chamber Day
Contributor
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here's the first of our overall Chamber Day/Eve event updates (not to be confused with our Challenge-only updates which are done separately and more frequently) to let you know how we're doing on all aspects of the upcoming event. Again this year out of COVID concerns, we are 100% virtual with a couple of new wrinkles).
In case you've been out of the loop: Chamber Day 2021 is Wednesday, May 5.
We're off to decent start in our first few days. But this is an event that lives and dies by word-of-mouth. So hopefully YOU are talking it up to your friends, customers, club members, etc. Remember that the monies we net from this event all go to help keep our Catalina Hyperbaric Chamber on sound financial footing.
We've got plenty of room on the daytime boats and the Flying Dutchman, the Chamber Challenge is off and running (already over $5,000!!!), and we've made a good start on Chamber Evening. But we've still got a long ways to go and a little under eight weeks to get there.
Our Chamber is a vital safety net for the SoCal diving community. Your support keeps it strong. So get involved with one or more aspects of Chamber Day 2020. The direct link to our sign-up page is: https://usc.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_dp3rzL7cVCFp1rM
