The Wrecking Crew has a much more active Facebook group. They're not on SB so much, anymore.

Where in IN are you? I'm in the Chicago area, dive Lake Michigan very frequently and Haigh Quarry a lot, as well.

I’m in the Indianapolis area but willing to travel within the region.

Local diving is about all done, unless you hit one of the quarries, such as Gilboa that is open year round. Mermet Springs in far southern IL is one of those, as well. Once next spring is here, run up I-65 to Hammond. Double Action Dive Charters has a great boat, SunDog, that runs out of the Hammond Marina to a whole bunch of great wrecks, a number of them shallow and good for newer divers.
