Lake Travis Bash June 5th

[Eff]

Looks like I'm going!

Anyone camping out friday night?

Also, any good shorediving? Last time I went up there, I did all my dives except one from the Giant Stride.

Yep... it's wet and somewhat transparent

Kidding aside the vis at WP has been pretty good for the last few weeks but with the goings on it will probably muck up. Grab a couple of early dives and then hit Roberts boat.

Wanted to give an update on the Bash. The OMS rep is ill and had to cancel. However, we will have the Aqualung / Apeks rep on hand with products to demo. We are also introducing our new Oak Hill Scuba Dive Team. Anyone joining the team at the bash will recieve a ticket for the raffle. Prizes include dinner certificates, dive gear and a 5 day, 4 night stay in Cancun.

Don't forget, Lake Travis Scuba will be running 1 tank charters. Call the shop to sign up.
See everyone there.

Looks like that's what I'm doing.

Just got off the phone with Rob, booked the charter @ 3:30.

Figured morning would be the best time to shoredive.

No shorediving buddies yet, but Rob says there will be a lot of nice divers there, so I'll find someone.

On the weekend the vis isn't as good above 60' due to all the classes, but it's still a lot better than it was last year.

Check out this site for lake temps. Good to save as a favorite.

Made it up to the site, staying near the lake with a group called "Giggling Marlin Divers". Only 10 or so people here as of now, but they say it will be packed tomorrow!
