Excited!

I guess this isn't something to post really but I thought it may interest some people. I went tonight and presented my scuba classes to a meeting of every boy scout leader in my district. I"m going to start teaching here and taking my classes down to a resort in Nassau. I got a lot of interest tonight so it looks like something may really happen with it. I'm excited and I can't wait to start!

Sounds Great The Children are our future,
My daughter is into Trap Shooting so I built a Trap range out back of my house for her to practice I also hold a trap shoot for kids in the summer for our local youth where I give out trophys and medals to the kids last year they had a ball. Scuba is a great sport to get kids involved maybe in the future I'll become a instructor and try a program like that in my area. Thanks

My son is in Boy Scouts and unfortunately there isn't a merit badge for scuba diving (something about it being too dangerous). Don't understand that! Like Backpacking in the wilderness, Rock Climbing, Rifle Shooting, Shotgun Shooting, & Whitewater Rafting AREN'T??? There IS a special merit badge for BSA Snorkeling & some of the requirements are things that you learn in scuba class. If you have some scouts that aren't old enough to be certified or even if you have some that would like to earn the badge along with getting certified, pm me & I'll send you the requirements.

Congrats, man! Good stuff.

I think that sounds so great. Both of my sons were in Boy Scouts, wish they could have had that available to them. My youngest took the Boy Scout Lifeguard training and passed it with flying colors. The toughest part was the distance swim he had to complete.

Keep us posted on your progress.

talk to NetDoc. He advises the ScubaDucks and could give you some input. Best of luck, and I admire your initiative.
