For the third year at Brownstone Park in Portland CT, Scuba Shack of CT is sponsoring Halcyon Demo Days all day on Aug. 21 & 22. Of course, you’ll get to try out all the cool new dive gear, plus this year we’re featuring a free dive control workshop.

You’re invited! Scuba Shack owner and instructor Ed Hayes will be offering free dive control workshops on Saturday. You’ll need to pre-register by contacting us at the store to hold your slot so we can ensure class sizes are appropriate.

Ed will be offering a half-day programs in the morning starting at 8 a.m. and half-day programs starting at about 1 p.m. on Saturday.

There will be some lecture and land drills involved, but most of the time will be spent in the water, diving and practicing your skills.

The free workshops are specifically designed to help you control your body, equipment, buoyancy and propulsion in the water. This principles of diving workshop is an excellent free introduction to Scuba Shack’s Buoyancy & Control 101 program.

Of course, a big part of diving with friends is eating great food by the water, so we’re offering a free barbecue on Saturday. We’ll have drinks and the hot dogs and hamburgers, and strongly suggest you bring a dish to share.

Although the event at Brownstone Park is free, you will need to pay for your admission to the park which is only $26 per day or $45 for the entire weekend. If you are an Adventure Sports season pass holder, you’re all set.

Halcyon dive gear will be available to try, but we will not have tanks available for free. Ensure you bring or rent tanks! Due to high demand, you will not be able to use the Halcyon demo gear during the free workshops.
