Meet N Greet XX: Gilboa April 25-27, 2008

[MrSmitty13]

Hey, does anybody have any peel-&-stick name tags? Maybe we could use them for Fri., especially for the new people. We could use our SB user name and our first names to help to learn & refresh the names of those who attend. Just a thought.

Are they waterproof?

I just thought I'd share too we are now in the 10-day forecast window for weather websites (even though the accuracy is poor being that far in advance) but here it is for findlay for Friday

I bring those every year. They dont seem to go over very well. I always lay them out but usually just Me ends up wearing one. I will bring them this year also. Just for tradition sake. To see if I can force people to wear one.

I think every year when we get to the 10 window it says rain everytime. Then the weekend of meet and greet it always turns out to be Sunny and Warm. I think I get sunburned every year.

Hey follow another tradition and bring the sign.

 

[diver_paula]

Didn't you already do that at Tobermory?


Ken

Sure did! Was thinking I should replace the other wrist given it was pretty old. Don't want to lose any more dives 'cause of a ripped seal.

Paula

 

[diver_paula]

That's what I was wondering...

If all else fails, you can hit the water in a 3 mil- lol!

It was a very refreshing dive!

 

[wolfen42]

Thanks for the clarification on what the bunkhouse is. Are the streets around the quarry also paved with gold?

 

[diver_paula]

I can throw in extra heaters for Paula's canopy. Looks like Steve_Dives is bringing his canopy/heater combo in lieu of mine (still need to replace zippers on my canopy--aaaarrgh!).

Nice!

Hey Paula, how about attaching some glue-on velcro to the back of the stickers and sewing velcro to the ends of a piece of elastic. That would allow us to "attach" the sticker to various underwater items.
Ber :lilbunny:

oooh... Good idea! I was gonna do something like this... http://www.scubaboard.com/forums/sb-sticker-contest/226359-sticker-contest-how-thread.html

I like the velcro idea better!

Havent you been following this thread? I have had the sign on the what I'm bringing list since Day one. I already have it in the Bunkhouse so I wont be forgetting it this year.

No, Mike typically has extra staff on for Ted's arrival and they just roll out a red satin carpet. Then two college girls in bikinis walk ahead of Ted's truck dropping rose petals for him to drive over. Upon arrival at the camp sight they form a set of stairs for Ted to exit his vehicle on.
